pair Networks: Thanks!

pair Networks are the people nice enough to host Treehugger's newly upgraded dedicated web server. We were especially pleased to discover they run their hosting business with some eco-initiatives in mind. pair employees are asked to shut down non-essential devices when they are not in the office, and even when the devices are not active (monitors and empty server aren't left running).
They also have a policy of only purchasing flat screen monitors, and turning lights off in unoccupied parts of the office and areas of the datacenter that are less inhabited by people (only web servers). They also encourage employees to take a bike or public transportation to work, and they allow for flexible schedules to help employees avoid rush-hour traffic. They can also boast that 13% of their employees drive hybrid vehicles. Good effort — we are glad have Treehugger hosted by such a crew. :: pair Networks [by Justin Thomas]
