Hi Geoffrey - it's a very valid question, and needs to be answered. You may
also be interested (or you may not) to read this feature I wrote precisely
on this topic recently:

Thanks Matthew. You have reminded me to ask a question I've been meaning to
ask this list for some time. Are there any science-trained subscribers who
could put an empirically backed-up figure on the amount of energy needed to
run (and the amount of collateral carbon dioxide thereby produced in order
to run) the scores and scores of server farms that exist solely to host all
the self-centred, narcissistic, ego-aggrandised trivia that is disgorged
into the blogosphere and twittersphere every single day?
Methinks we have fallen too much in love with our reflection. Goodbye Homo
sapiens; hello Homo narcissi.
