Earth Friendly
Computation
Building sustainable computing for a better tomorrow
We are a creative, scientific collective designing and building earth-friendly means of computation. From solar-powered data terrariums to sustainable data centers, we're reimagining how technology can work in harmony with our planet.
Our Mission
We believe computation can be designed and implemented in a way that is benevolent for our planet. Every community deserves determination over how their data is used and its effect on their environment.
Environmental Awareness
Most people are unaware of the energy utilization of data centers. We believe that if people knew about the true cost, many would alter their behavior and push for systemic change.
Sustainable Solutions
We design and build small-scale, solar-powered computing systems that demonstrate sustainable data processing is possible at scale.
Community-Driven
We are a distributed community of creatives, scientists, students, and changemakers working together to build the world we want to live in.
Featured Projects
Innovative projects demonstrating sustainable computing in action
🌱 Data Terrariums
Small-scale, self-sustaining computing ecosystems powered entirely by solar energy. Each terrarium consists of a power-efficient GPU, battery backup, and solar capacity for net-zero external energy input.
- Solar-powered GPU computing
- 100-500 watt power budget
- Deep learning model execution
- Geographic optimization software
- Less than $10,000 per unit
📊 Sustainable Data Centers
Research and development of larger-scale sustainable computing infrastructure, using lessons learned from data terrariums to inform the design of earth-friendly data centers.
- Distributed computing networks
- Renewable energy integration
- Geographic load balancing
- Environmental impact tracking
🔬 Research & Education
Educational initiatives and research programs to raise awareness about the environmental impact of computing and develop new sustainable technologies.
- Environmental impact studies
- Educational workshops
- Open-source tools
- Community partnerships
