Facebook Urged by Greenpeace to Drop Coal for Renewable Energy

Facebook has been putting a lot of effort into maximizing its data servers’ energy efficiency; however, the social network king is still reliant on coal for its energy needs. Greenpeace—the outspoken, yet commendable environmental justice organization—has put together a campaign to urge Facebook to seek renewable energy alternatives to coal.

Greenpeace has put together a campaign to try and gather Facebook comments on the coal to renewable energy switch. Greenpeace’s goal is to surpass 50,000 comments in a 24-hour period. If successful it will be a world record. The comments have already surpassed 45,000, and it looks like Greenpeace is going to hit its goal.
