Internode Goes 100 Percent Green Power For Its Offices And Data Centres
Australian hippies and eco-warriors can now enjoy using bittorrent as much as the rest of us. Internode have announced that they are now using 100 percent green power for their offices and data centres around the country, drastically reducing their impact on the environment.
The move to use only renewable energy sources like wind and solar has ensured that their status as a 100% carbon neutral company is maintained. And although there is a 20 percent increase in the cost of Internode’s electricity, they currently have no plans to pass that cost onto consumers.
So now Internode customers can happily know that their hours of reading Giz are not only saving the environment, but doing it for the same price, while making you smarter and more attractive to the opposite sex (well, that’s what we tell people, anyway).

Well there is a good enough reason NOT to go back to internode. Tree hugging hippies.
Nice work Internode, you just make me love you more!
This is just absurd. Though I like Internode and the awesome ISP they are, this is just perpetuating the unsubstantiated ‘green’ propaganda of the 2008 lamest corporate publicity stunts.
Does anyone honestly think they’re making any difference and as a result would choose them over another ISP? That 20% increase in costs could help fund higher download quotas or lower prices.
That’s the attitude McBanjo!!
Actually, yes it does make a difference, if you concede that burning coal is a massively polluting and greenhouse gas producing (yeah, they’re different statements) method of generating electricity.
The more demand for “green” energy, the more capacity has to be built and the less demand there is for “Brown” energy..
Hence there is a difference.. Every little bit helps..
McBanjo you are a tool. If everyone thought like you, then yes nothing would ever change. You are a complete moron. Anyways, nice one Internode
