Green/eco-friendly hosting, also known as sustainable hosting, refers to web hosting services that prioritise environmental responsibility and sustainability. It involves utilising renewable energy sources, energy-efficient infrastructure, and carbon offset initiatives to reduce the carbon footprint associated with hosting operations. Green hosting is important because it helps mitigate the environmental impact of data centres and servers, which are known for their energy consumption. By choosing green hosting, individuals and businesses can contribute to a more sustainable future, reduce their carbon emissions, and support eco-friendly practices in the web hosting industry.
