Greenest Host, the premier provider of green web hosting, web development, and web marketing services to green and ethical businesses, today announced the appointment of Paul Hannam as Chairman of the Board. Mr. Hannam is an accomplished author, entrepreneur and leader in environmental business internationally.
Mr. Hannam is co-founder and Chairman at Bright Green Talent, a venture with the mission to recruit the brightest and the best talent in the world to work for organizations that are committed to sustainability and corporate social responsibility. Previously, he founded a computer recruitment and executive search business in England that topped $50 million in annual revenue. Between 2001 and 2005 he was an Associate Fellow at the Oxford University Environmental Change Institute.
“There are lots of synergies between Bright Green Talent and Greenest Host. It is funny how life works. Over seven years ago, I came to the United States to find a growing Internet company in whom I could invest and it changed my life completely. I didn’t find that company, but, instead, I ended up joining the green movement. Now, seven years later, I returned to find a thriving green venture in which to invest and I ended up joining an Internet company. Greenest Host is definitely best positioned to provide full service web and marketing outsourcing for green businesses,” said Mr. Hannam.
The company plans to expand its existing network of green business partners as well as add marketing and technology support to round out their platform of green web services. “We will continue to make it easy for small to midsize businesses to turn their IT infrastructures into zero emissions showcases, said Mike Corrales, Greenest Host CEO. “However, adding Paul’s strategic vision and fantastic connections with the world’s green leaders to our record of executing cutting-edge Internet solutions for customers could not be a better fit.”
An August 2007 study by the U.S. EPA concluded that U.S. Data Centers consumed 61 billion kilowatt-hours (kWh) of electricity. That is more than all of the nation’s televisions and similar to the amount of electricity consumed by approximately 5.8 million average U.S. households. Greenest Host is helping a rapidly growing list of companies reduce their carbon footprint through a 100% solar powered data center operation and web consulting services. The company only offers solutions powered by 100% renewable energy so that there is no need for carbon offsetting.
Greenest Host web hosting plans start at $9.95 a month. More information about Greenest Host, it’s state-of-the-art clean powered data center, its web hosting plans, and it’s web design, development and marketing services are available at http://www.greenesthost.com.
