Infographic: The Benefits of Biking

2015 Click Clean Report

The Internet needs a lot of energy, and its footprint grows every day as we live more and more of our lives online. That’s why Greenpeace is calling on major Internet companies to lead the way in renewable power.

Over the past few years, after hearing from Greenpeace supporters, both Apple and Facebook committed to 100 percent renewable energy, causing major investments in wind and solar energy.

The Ecocapsule is a tiny off-the-grid home that claims it can bring the comforts of civilization into the wilderness. Between the turbine and solar panels, it is capable of not only generating sufficient energy for heating the pod, powering the kitchen, and heating your shower’s hot water, but also can contribute towards powering your electric car (if you connect it to your Ecocapsule, that is!). The design of the pod is strategized for efficient rainwater collection and purification, and then used in the kitchen and the shower. The Ecocapsule will be available for preorder in late 2015. 

That’s about the only sun I got to see today between the sideways snow and hail.. Ha it was 70°f yesterday.. Gata love high elevation living in Oregon!
