Is There A Search Engine That Saves Energy With Lcd Monitors?
For LCD monitors, Blackle.com and Earthle.com do NOT save more energy that Google.com. In fact, they use a little bit more. Blackle.com and Earthle.com only conserve energy with the older, glass computer screens. So my question is, is there a search engine designed to save energy for LCD monitors?

Hi there ELMOtional,
Regarding a search engine that will save energy via an LCD monitor, the energy use will not change regardless of which search engine you are using as the power in an LCD is used via a fluorescent tube / tubes and are always on whilst an LCD is switched on.
There are ways in which you can set things up to run on Carbon Neutral energy.
If you go to http://www.homebrewpower.co.uk or email andy@homebrewpower.co.uk he will advise you on how, for example, to set up a small solar panel, charge controller, batteries and an inverter so you can power your PC and monitor from the SUN.
He sells kits and also provides a complete installation package for what he describes as Eco Sockets.
He even sells a DVD on how to create your own carbon neutral electricity for free!
Hope this helps you out x
An LCD monitor has nothing to do with your search engine. A search engine will have no effect on your energy consumption. No website will consume more energy than another website when it comes to your computer monitor. Whomever told you different is trying to make you look stupid. While LCD, and CRT monitor may be different, a website is not more efficient on one than the other.
I looked at one of the sites you mentioned… It is called a hoax.
The website is just trying to make money off of google. Even if it were possible to save energy, the figures the site gave… are pointless. A single radio station consumes many times that total amount per year. The website likely takes more energy to host than the figures it gives you.
No
