Browsing, chatting and all other internet activities make a carbon polution. Every time we use Google service we have contributed on global warming. This is happened because every time we turn on the computer, it will use electricity.
Physician from Havard University, Alex Wissner-Gross concluded that every time google search engine work, it make 7 grams of carbon. It means when we make 10 search, then it will produce 70 grams of carbon.
This calculation based on carbon emissions from the consumption of electricity needed to power the computer users and the Google data center that operates around the world. Using large energy means more carbon dioxide emissions considering almost electricity that is used currently based fossil energy sources.
Google said it's true that every time they make a search it will produce a carbon polution, but it is only cost 0,0003 kWh or 0,2 gram of carbon. Google claims that the result is too high. Moreover Google has make Climate Savers Computing Initiative to lower the use of energy in the consumer level to half of 2010 and began to decrease carbon dioxide emissions 54 million tons per year.
