The videos are quite funny though, but aims to deliver a bitter truth that the famous products that we use every day like Amazon Kindle Fire, iPhone, iPod, iPad, Microsoft operating system and other software that needs online cloud access, Facebook, Twitter and all the cloud usage requires more Coal to burn every day and pollute the environment at best.

Cloud Technology is Everywhere

When the Tech giants are so curious to get into cloud to serve their users better and to keep growing financially, it is also necessary to have a focus towards the Power Resource they rely on. It is all about Renewable energy and Greenpeace – Non profit organization is working hard to force the top companies to adopt and use it to save the environment and make a better future.

Many companies havent made their Power Resource methods transparent and this movement really created an effect to let the companies come out with a transparent details of their power usage and methods in play to keep their Data centers up and Running.
