LOS ANGELES — Today, in solidarity with the Global Climate Strike, YouPorn is displaying tips on its homepage to help users reduce their energy consumption while visiting the site.
According to the company, all energy usage tip graphics will redirect users back to the Global Climate Strike website so that visitors can learn more about the event that runs from September 20-27.
“It’s going to take all of us to end the age of fossil fuels and solve the climate crisis,” stated the event’s organizers. “This week will be historic. In over 150 countries, people are stepping up to support young climate strikers and demand an end to the age of fossil fuels. The climate crisis won’t wait, so neither will we.”
“Young people have woken up much of the world with their powerful Fridays for Future school strikes for the climate. Now, millions of adults are joining in a huge wave of that will kick-start renewed action all over the world,” the event organizers added. “The urgency of the climate crisis requires a new approach and a just response centered on human rights, equity, and justice.”
Among the actions that YouPorn recommends are the following three tips, which appear on its site and social media accounts:
Mobile phones tend to be the most energy-efficient — more so than a television or a laptop. YouPorn’s Mobile Web App launches right from a smartphone or tablet home screen. "You’ll still be able to enjoy all of YouPorn’s unique web features right from the palm of your free hand," said the organizers.
A mobile phone using Wi-Fi consumes less energy than one that is connected to a 3G or 4G network. When streaming content from the site, ensure you are switching off your network and connecting to Wi-Fi, and you’ll avoid buffering issues.
Finally, "when streaming on YouPorn, cut out extra electricity usage by turning off your lights, turning down the thermostat and getting cozy with yourself or your partner in bed."
