Digital Sustainability

At Ecohuerto Salduie we apply permaculture principles to our digital presence: minimal impact, maximum efficiency and respect for resources. Here's how we measure and reduce our online carbon footprint.

Green hosting

This website is hosted on a green hosting provider powered by renewable energy. You can verify this via the badge in our footer.

Low-carbon web design

Every design decision is made to minimize energy consumption per visit:

  • Optimized font loading: only the necessary typeface variants are loaded with local WOFF2 files.
  • WebP images with lazy loading and explicit dimensions.
  • CSS content-visibility: auto so the browser only renders visible content.
  • No unnecessary JavaScript: only React islands for essential interactive components.
  • Inline SVGs for icons: zero extra requests for decorative graphics.

Emissions measurement

We use the @tgwf/co2 library with the SWDM v4 model (Sustainable Web Design Model) to calculate the grams of CO₂ emitted per visit to our site.

This model estimates emissions based on page weight, server infrastructure and user device energy consumption. We periodically update the figure and display it transparently in our footer.

Digital permaculture

Just like in the garden, we apply permaculture principles to our website:

  • Observe and interact: we monitor performance and emissions to make informed decisions.
  • Produce no waste: every kilobyte saved is energy and CO₂ not emitted.
  • Use small and slow solutions: we prefer static HTML and CSS over heavy frameworks.
