If a customer narrowed his search for a hosting company down to a final choice of two providers, one who offers a broadly similar service and price to eukhost but they actually promote their positive environmental policies and eukhost don't, then it could mean that the customer would more than likely choose the other hosting company instead of eukhost.
From the limited number of people who's answered this poll so far, 80% have said "yes" they are basically interested in a carbon neutral eukhost! If we had more people answer the poll, it could just give the right signal to eukhost to do something about it!! Pllllleaaaase?

I know it sounds harsh but I disagree for me personally. A carbon neutral company would not persuade me either way whether to join a company for my web hosting.
The things that I base my hosting on are uptime / features / pricing etc.
If you want to put your energy into something that will really save the planet then start a petition to get President Bush to sign up to the Keyoto agreement - that will do a billion times what one company can do!
