How Green is your Internet? (Working with Numbers in English)

Did you know about this?  Thank you to Tom Walton for sharing this on his blog.



This video has lots of numbers in it, lots of big numbers.  Did you understand all the information in the video?  I have a small challenge for you.

Try watching it again and identify the significance of each of the numbers below.  I've done the first number for you as an example.

0.2 is the number of grams per second of carbon that is generated by 1 second of online video.

2,000,000,000

4,000

44,000,000

2%

130,000,000,000

10%

2,500,000

1,065

100,000,000

350,000,000

20,000,000

Are you surprised by any of this information?
