Clean Up of Email In Inbox Could Help Save Energy
By MYBRANDBOOK
It is true that, old e-mails consume energy. E-mail providers store our messages on servers, which consume energy 24 hours a day. The more messages, the more servers. Less e-mails stored, less energy wasted.”
A study by ICF International and McAfeereveals that storing 1GB of e-mail consumes 32.1 kWh per year. According to Orange, if every single person in France deleted 50 emails, the energy savings would be equivalent to turning the Eiffel tower’s lights off for 42 years, or to New York City not consuming any electricity for 4 hours. 50 e-mails is nothing compared to the hundreds and hundreds of unnecessary messages that most people accumulate in their lifetime
Best practices for usage and cleaning the of e-mails regularly
* Search and destroy: Once a month, scan your inbox for old, unnecessary e-mails that you can delete. Pay particular attention to those with bulky attachments.
* Take out the trash: Empty your Junk E-mail folder regularly. (Some e-mail programs do this automatically.)
* Manage your subscriptions: If you are subscribed to newsletters, reassess which ones you really need/enjoy reading. Do most of them simply sit unopened in your inbox? In that case, it might be time to unsubscribe from some of them.
* Social media: If you receive notification e-mails from social networks such as Facebook, LinkedIn and Twitter, deactivate them unless you really need them. Most of the time, they just duplicate information you already receive directly through the network’s website or app.
As per Cleanfox ,they estimates that an email is on average responsible for the emission of 10 grams of Co2 per year, and if the Internet were a country, it would be the sixth biggest electricity consumer in the world.
As per Orange( A Telecom Company)suggests :
If every single person in France deleted 50 emails, the energy savings would be equivalent to turning the Eiffel tower’s lights off for 42 years, or to New York City not consuming any electricity for 4 hours.
