GMX Update


Dear GMX Member,

April 22 is International Earth Day. All over the world, millions of people will participate in events to raise awareness and protect our environment. And ecological conservation is now more important than ever. That's why we would like to draw your attention to the little things we all can do for a greener way of life.

Think Green, Act Green, Live Green

The environmental problems we are facing may seem insurmountable at first, but we can all do something to protect our environment:

* Recycle trash and use biodegradable materials instead of plastics to reduce waste and pollution.
* Buy regional and seasonal foods and other products to minimize transportation and emissions.
* Turn off the water while you're brushing your teeth or take a shower instead of a bath to save water.
* Turn off your computer, TV, lights etc. when you don't need them to save energy.
* Walk, bike, carpool or use public transportation instead of driving your car by yourself to reduce carbon dioxide emissions.
* Plant a tree or start gardening.
* Get involved with community initiatives or local organizations, for example, to clean up nature parks or reforest land.
Of course, we don't just want to inspire you to live green; we're also doing our share for the environment:

Along with our sister company 1&1 Internet, we support various environmental initiatives and use highly efficient servers, which run only on green energy from water and wind power. This way, we have already cut our CO2 emissions by 30.000 tons per year.

No matter how small your effort may seem, every little step counts for a greener and better future. If we all pull together, green is not just a label you can wear. It will become our way of life.
If you would like to find out more about Earth Day or find local events, you can go to the Official Earth Day Website and learn more.

Happy Earth Day!

Your GMX Team
