Clean Our Cloud Action in Seattle
Greenpeace activists unfurl a banner near Amazon.com headquarters in Seattle reading "Clean Our Cloud" The current explosion in cloud computing offered by major IT companies is driving significant new demand for dirty energy like coal and nuclear power. A new report from Greenpeace International, “How Clean is Your Cloud?" shows a growing split within the tech industry between companies that are taking steps to power their clouds with clean energy, like Google, Yahoo and Facebook, and companies like Apple, Amazon and Microsoft who lag behind by choosing to build their growing fleets of data centres to be powered by coal and nuclear energy.
