　　Who would have thought that, globally, the IT industry produces about the same volumes of greenhouse gases as the world’s airlines do-rough 2 percent of all CO2 emissions?

　　Many everyday tasks take a surprising toll on the environment. A Google search can leak between 0.2 and 7.0 grams of CO2 depending on how many attempts are needed to get the “right” answer. To deliver results to its users quickly, then, Google has to maintain vast data centres round the world, packed with powerful computers. While producing large quantities of CO2, these computers emit a great deal of heat, so the centres need to be well air-conditioned, which uses even more energy.

　　However, Google and other big tech providers monitor their efficiency closely and make improvements. Monitorinng is the first step on the road to reduction, but there is much to be done, and not just by big companies.

　　參考范文C

　　從全球范圍來看，有誰(shuí)會(huì)想到IT 行業(yè)釋放的溫室氣體大約占總二氧化碳總排量的2%，這跟全球航空公司產(chǎn)生的一樣多?

　　許多日常的工作對(duì)環(huán)境造成了令人震驚的破壞作用。根據(jù)每次你搜索直到得到正確答案的次數(shù)，谷歌搜索引擎會(huì)排放0.2-7克的二氧化碳。為了快速將結(jié)果傳遞給用戶，谷歌在全球設(shè)置了大量充斥著能量巨大的電腦的數(shù)據(jù)中心。這些電腦在排放出大量二氧化碳的同時(shí)，會(huì)產(chǎn)生大量的能量，因此這些數(shù)據(jù)中心需要良好的空調(diào)降溫，這又會(huì)同事產(chǎn)生大量的能量。

　　然而，谷歌和其他技術(shù)提供商嚴(yán)密檢測(cè)他們的效果并不斷進(jìn)行改進(jìn)。監(jiān)控是減排的第一步，但仍有其他的措施并且不僅僅局限于大的公司。
