>> The only reason the servers and internet access produce CO2 emissions is because of the defective and antiquated energy production systems we use across the world. As we move towards more efficient and "cleaner" means of energy production, the carbon footprint should decrease.
>> Moving servers to Scandinavia would be interesting, but a unsound logistical idea. I agree that it would be a effective reuse of energy, but I am concerned about the access problem of relocating assets in one region. Now, placing new servers in Scandinavia on a grid so that the energy production can be reused is not a bad idea, but would be something for the chapters there to look at.
