Alright, so, most of you use google to search? (I'm guessing), well, if you use www.blackle.com, it IS google, but a kind of environmentally friendly version!
What's Blackle? Simply put, Blackle is Google with a black background. Apparently if Google had a black background color, the world would save over 750 Megawatt hours per year. The reason: computers use less energy to display black than bright white. It takes about 74 watts to display a white page while only 59 watts to display a black page. Although Google will probably never go black, imagine if Google could send this message out to all the people who have Google as their home page. Every time they load they internet they are reminded of pollution and ways to save energy. Google has the power to change the world.
So, why not use this?
