Youtube can be heard even if the screen is off, will reduce 5 million tonnes of carbon footprint every year.
Youtube now has to give users the permission to listen to the audio on the inactive screen.
This feature is currently available only for premium paying subscribers
Youtube's annual carbon footprint is up to 10 million tons per year
Gadget Desk Youtube can now offer users the ability to listen to songs on an inactive screen soon. The changed design of Youtube will allow users to listen to songs without video. By doing so, the company's carbon footprint will reduce carbon dioxide (CO2) by 5 million tons per annum. According to researchers, Youtube's annual carbon footprint is up to 10 million tons per year. Energy is used very much in streaming video. Using the Internet or the phone network, the video passes through several servers to reach the user, which hosts the data center.
Inactiv screens will reduce carbon footprint
Google is a company owned by Data Center. Youtube uses a large amount of carbon dioxide (CO2). The production is done by coal or natural gas. According to Bristol University, Youtube video streaming can give users the ability to listen to audio on the inactive screen to reduce their giant carbon footprint.
2. Premium Subscribers will get the facility
Those Youtube users who pay fees will not need to keep the mobile screen active for listening to songs on the Youtube App. Songs can also be heard by turning off the mobile screen or locking the phone. This feature is only available for Premium Subscribers. Subscribers will have to pay rent for each month.
3. Digital waste will be reduced: Researchers
Professor Kris Prost said that researchers have been focusing on data centers to reduce 'digital waste' and make digital pipelines relevant to the environment. However, the hardware is losing its weight. He further said that energy is used in data centers. It also includes network spread across the world. Not only that, a user is watching mobile and mobile transmission is included in it.
Professor Kristen Prost said that Youtube buys green energy to offset its data centers, which can be called good. Google is one of the leading companies to do so from the environment perspective. In addition to Youtube data, the team used the energy statistics of Netflix Data Centers. Netflix data centers are similar to Youtube's performance.
5. What Is Carbon Footprint?
Like driving a fuel burns it and releasing CO2 in the atmosphere. Some CO2s are produced even when cooking at home. That is, carbon footprint shows the amount of carbon dioxide released in the Earth's atmosphere due to human activity, household or commercial activities daily. Carbon footprint is a set of GHGs (greenhouse gas emissions), such as carbon dioxide (CO2), methane (CH4), nitrous oxide (N2O), directly or indirectly extracted by individuals or objects.
