Introduction / Description
I have made numerous efficient design choices on my website which have resulted in lowered energy consumption.
All notices apply to both Benjamin-Newton.com and Cloudy.diamonds
Big Wins
I do not sell anything or ship anything from my website.
I do not send out newsletters from my website.
I use no Javascript or PHP.
I have no movies on my website.
I have no ads or tracking on my website.
I avoid invasive and power hungry effects.
I do not use third party websites or connections.
Graphics
Most of my graphics are greatly optimized as well as being vector based or using next generation formats like webp.
I do not show unnecessary pictures on phones.
Ink and Paper
I use minimal ink or color in the print syles for my web pages.
Almost everything is available as an e-book, so it doesn't need to be printed out.
Color Choices
I have a dark mode which lowers energy consumption on many newer phones.
Computing Choices
I use energy efficient devices to create my website content.
I do not travel far or often to get graphics or inspiration for my website.
I have not done any 3D modeling for years.
More Energy Efficient Choices
I use built in fonts on my webpages.
Many texts have already been pre-translated so that uses less energy.
My content pages are even more simplified and use even less energy.
