The internet is responsible for about 3.7% of global greenhouse gas emissions. This is primarily due to the energy consumed by data centres, network infrastructure, and the devices used to access it. The rapid growth of digital services has resulted in increased demand for electricity, much of which still comes from fossil fuels.
To find out your website's emissions, you can use online tools designed to estimate the carbon footprint of websites. These tools analyse factors like page size, number of visitors, and energy consumption from data centres and servers to provide an estimate of your website's CO₂ emissions. Services like Ecograder give you a quick overview by simply entering your website's URL.
Ecoloader makes a website greener by improving its energy efficiency through various methods, such as compressing media files, minimising code, and reducing unnecessary data transfer. By optimising the size of images and other media, Ecoloader helps decrease the amount of energy required to load a webpage. It also implements techniques like lazy loading, which only loads content when it's needed, and caching, which reduces the need to repeatedly fetch data from servers. These improvements not only speed up your website but also lower the energy required to operate it, thereby reducing its carbon footprint.
