Great point. Google, for example, is attempting to make all the world's
information accessible en masse, but in doing so, have become a major energy
consumer. To counter this, Google has implemented the largest solar panel
installation in the US and now reports that a good chunk of its power comes
fro renewable energy.

Most companies don't do anything like this, despite that the IT sector
accounts for something like 5% of all the energy used in the USA.
