I came across an accessible infographic video on the carbon footprint of the Internet. According the video, the more you watch, the more carbon you will burn , with the video stating, “0.2 grams of C02 per second of video watched”. This is actually equal to Google’s estimates for a single search request. Despite the 24.8 grams of carbon that will be emitted watching this video (it’s 2:04 long), it does a great job explaining a concept few of us know about or realize as we surf along. Note to self: a system or service for online carbon offsets.
