Committing to Sustainability - How Adams Digital Leverages AWS for a Carbon Neutral Footprint
Adams Digital pioneers sustainability in the digital realm! Learn how our partnership with AWS accelerates our carbon-neutral goals and how donating 2.5% of profits to Stripe Climate is catalyzing crucial carbon removal technologies. Explore our commitment to environmental responsibility while providing top-tier digital services.
In today’s digital era, the environmental impact of online activities and cloud computing is a growing concern. With a dramatic increase in data consumption, cloud services, and overall internet usage, energy demands for operating massive data centers have surged. However, it’s not all grim. At Adams Digital, we are turning the tide towards environmental sustainability by combining our commitment to cutting-edge technological implementation and corporate responsibility.
Achieving a Carbon Neutral Footprint with Amazon Web Services (AWS)
As a significant player in the web hosting industry, Adams Digital recognizes the substantial environmental impact associated with digital operations. Thus, we have committed to achieving a carbon-neutral footprint, largely through our partnership with Amazon Web Services (AWS). Here’s how we’re making it work:
1. Leveraging AWS’s Commitment to Sustainability
AWS is committed to achieving 100% renewable energy usage for its global infrastructure footprint. The cloud giant has numerous initiatives and investments in renewable energy projects. By hosting our services on AWS, Adams Digital directly benefits from AWS’s extensive use of renewable energy sources. This alignment significantly lowers the carbon footprint of our hosted sites and applications.
Further information about AWS’s sustainability efforts can be found on the AWS Sustainability page.
2. Optimization of Computing Resources
Adams Digital utilizes AWS’s optimization tools and services to ensure that computing resources are allocated efficiently. Using Amazon CloudWatch and AWS Trusted Advisor, we monitor and optimize our cloud usage to ensure minimal waste. Reducing over-provisioning of resources not only cuts costs but also decreases our energy consumption, directly contributing to our carbon neutrality goals.
3. Serverless Architectures
Our extensive use of serverless computing on AWS plays a crucial role in achieving an environmentally friendly operation. Serverless architectures mean that we can run applications and services without having a dedicated physical or virtual server. This model is inherently more resource-efficient as it eliminates the idle computing resources and optimizes the usage based on demand.
Supporting Environmental Initiatives Through Stripe Climate
While we strive to minimize our direct environmental impact through our technological practices, Adams Digital also believes in the power of collective action. This is why we donate 2.5% of our profits to Stripe Climate, a global initiative by Stripe to accelerate carbon removal technologies.
How Does Stripe Climate Contribution Make a Difference?
Innovative Carbon Removal: Stripe Climate funds a diverse range of projects that are developing promising new technologies focused on long-term CO2 removal. By supporting these forward-thinking projects, the donations help speed up the development and deployment of carbon removal technologies at scale.
Transparency and Impact: Stripe provides transparency in how the funds are allocated, offering reports and insights into the progress and impact of the supported projects. This transparency ensures that every contribution made by Adams Digital and our customers has a tangible impact.
Boosting Technological Innovations: The funds help startups and new technologies pass through the initial phases of economic challenges. This boost is essential for long-term sustainability projects that require substantive early investment before they become viable at scale.
