Full story: Data centre carbon emissions soar (10-Oct-07)

A new Gartner report has revealed that data centres account for around a quarter of all IT industry carbon emissions. There are three main reasons which account for such a large portion of IT CO2, these are a lack of floor space, a failure to house high density servers and increased power consumption and heat generation, all three of these will affect the cost of running a data centre.
