The website of the Mary Robinson Foundation - Climate Justice is hosted by an EPA Green Power Partner. That means the servers, data centers and offices supporting MRFCJ.org are powered by renewable energy.
Renewable Energy Certificates (RECs) have been purchased to offset energy use, in an effort to reduce our impact on the environment, meaning MRFCJ.org is powered by 100% wind energy.
This commitment by our hosting provider will allow 4,412,000 kWh of wind energy to enter into the electricity grid annually from May 2009 until May 2011. By offsetting all of its electricity use with wind-generated Renewable Energy Certificates, our hosting provider prevents the release of 2,660 metric tons of carbon dioxide from entering the atmosphere each year.
The estimated yearly benefit to the environment is equivalent to:
- planting approximately 2,390 acres of trees
- or not driving 6.1 million miles
