Green Tech goes to Top

One of the latest social awareness crazes that has cemented a pretty broad following is the idea of “going green”.  Though many people have been stressing environmental preservation for years, it has really caught on the last 5 years influencing more than just leftist activist rallies and peace demonstrations.  The Go Green mindset has now settled itself into the business world, corporate America, the domain once viewed as the arch nemesis of everything Green Initiatives stood for. 

Green ideas are everywhere we go now.  People are trying to incorporate the Three R’s into their daily lives; Reduce, Recycle, Reuse.  People have traded in their Hummers for the sporty new Prius (just go with me on this one) and are looking to minimize energy consumption and their environmental footprint.  Cars are starting to get more mileage per gallon?! Wow, talk about a timely scientific break through! Wait? What is that? Automakers have had the ability to do that for years, but nobody cared enough to implement it? Why is that? Because consumers didn’t care? Interesting.  The Green lifestyle is more than cars though it’s bringing your own bags to the grocery store, it’s using energy efficient light bulbs and appliances, it’s turning lights off when you leave a room, it’s not running the air conditioner on MAX COLD NORTH POLE temperature all day. 

Now however, these ideas and lifestyle adjustments that people are making in their private lives are carrying over into the corporate world.  Companies, and not just the small ones, have hopped on the bandwagon and are going green.  There is a whole new market sector developing in the corporate world completely dedicated the development of Green products and Green technologies.  This past week news came from Chromasun, a solar power development company, that they will be unveiling their new solar powered air-conditioning unit later this week.  Air-Conditioners are one the top energy consuming appliances in the world, especially in California, where they consume half of the peak energy load.  The new solar powered air-conditioner will look to reduce total energy consumption by nearly 15%.  

They are not alone in the push for Green however.  Many other companies are seeking out strategic business plans that not only to cut cost, but to be more environmentally friendly by reducing energy waste and carbon foot prints.  The TNS Group is proud to be one of these companies that provide these types of services to many of our clients.  Through the utilization of remote access, network optimization, and server virtualization The TNS Group is allowing companies to travel less, spend less, and use less.  These practices reduce carbon emission from traveling, cut energy consumption from powering unnecessary servers, and save on the cost of product hardware and the power needed to run that hardware.  The TNS Group is proud to be part of Green Initiatives and saving clients time, energy, money.
