Comments on Vinnie's review of DreamHost
DreamHost
Description: DreamHost is owned by its employees. We're a tight-knit family and we're not looking to sell out to investors or media conglomerates or other gigantic companies who care more about the bottom line than providing solid web hosting.

I've always been very pleased with DreamHost's web hosting and now just recently I've learned they went carbon neutral. It took them three days to go from “Hey let’s do this” to “Hey it’s done!” (and several thousand dollars ;)
With all their servers, two offices, and employee computers, they calculated their carbon footprint at 30,600 acres and generate 2,725 tons of CO2 per year. To help offset, they did little things like switching to coffee cups made from fully renewable resources, to deploying power-efficient AMD processors. They also are purchasing yearly carbon credits to make up for the rest.
