Enjoy texting: at 0.014g of carbon dioxide a text it’s a very low carbon cost way to communicate
Think before you click: each web search requires energy on your computer, laptop or ‘phone and more at the server finding the webpage for you, costing 4.5g CO2e a time. Just 10 searches a day adds up to 16.5kg CO2e a year.
Switch to using a green search engine on the internet such as www.ecosia.org, which plants trees to absorb the carbon emissions from your web searches.
Email with care: an email generates 4g CO2e and a large email with lots of attachments up to 50g. Don’t stop communicating, but think before you copy everyone in!
