IT is now high on the carbon reduction agenda. Facts are now emerging that IT has the same carbon impact as the airline industry and companies are now waking up to how much power IT uses, and probably more interestingly to most, the potential cost saving.

 

Scientia aims to fill the gap of knowledge, skills and delivery of most energy efficient technology to meet your needs and carbon reduction goals.

 
From 2000 to 2006 IT's Carbon Footprint doubled, by the end of 2009 it will double again...                                                                                                                                                                                                                                          • Computers now produce more carbon emissions than the airline industry (BBC)...                                                                                                                                                                                                                                          • If you post a picture on Facebook and view it 20 times that is the equivalent of leaving a 100 watt light bulb on for 30 minutes...                                                                                                                                                                                                                                          • 5 Servers produce 20,000kg of Carbon per annum. You need to plant 40 trees offset this amount of carbon...                                                                                                                                                                                                                                          • Delivery of power to most cities is now major issue in any building project.
