Why did HostPapa go green? "Simply put, we did it because of our commitment to corporate responsibility and to the environment. Ultimately, we wanted to be the green leader in web hosting. The servers and equipment we use here at HostPapa run 24 hours per day and consume a great deal of electricity. Why should we burden the world just because we require that electricity to light up our servers? If we need the electricity for our operation, let's buy it from clean-energy sources and contribute positively to our environment."

According to SuperGreen… "your website is hosted on a server which on average produces around 12½ Tonnes of CO2 each year, that is a huge amount of CO2!  Each year your PC produces half a tonne, your car produces 5 TONNES, AND your home produces 6½ TONNES – THIS MEANS on average EACH PERSON IS responsible for 12 tonNes of the CO2 that is produced each year! THAT is a huge amount of CO2 AND SHOWS WHY we are so insistent in our beliefs IN GREEN HOSTING."
