| How to Reduce Carbon Emissions from Financial Services Posted: 23 May 2022 12:08 AM PDT Fintech and electronic banking services are godsends of the modern era. Never has it been easier for money to change hands. Nearly 369 billion purchases are made every day, many of which happen on electronic platforms. But behind every transaction lies a hidden fee: carbon emissions. Climate change is a price the whole world pays for our modern conveniences, and it's only getting higher with time. Finance industry consumers know the importance of sustainability. 1 in 3 consumers would pay more for sustainable services, and roughly 85% of the globe has shifted its purchasing behavior towards sustainability in the past 5 years. Many of these changes are incremental, but they represent an emerging trend. As climate change becomes more dire, so too are the actions people are willing to take to mitigate it. 99% of CEOs agree that sustainability initiatives are crucial to their long term success, but many aren't sure how to actually cause change. Cloud computing could start the solution. Here are 3 major ways that the cloud reduces greenhouse gas emissions. First: cloud data centers are more energy efficient than on-premise ones. They're able to perform the same services using less power. Second: the cloud replaces physical machines with their virtual equivalents, reducing the carbon they would have emitted. Third: dematerialization lowers the consumption of resources. Cloud services let people do more with fewer electronic devices, thereby reducing e-waste. Mass migration to cloud services can reduce global carbon emissions by 59 million metric tons every year. That's equivalent to taking 22 million cars off the road! Cloud data centers can also be located anywhere in the world. If data centers tap into a clean energy grid, they increase their emission savings. Google uses geography to their advantage as they work towards 24/7 green energy by 2030. ![]() The post How to Reduce Carbon Emissions from Financial Services appeared first on Infographics Archive. |
| 50 Breakfast Dishes From Around the Globe Posted: 22 May 2022 11:54 PM PDT It’s often said that breakfast is the most popular meal of the day.

| How Much Brand New Cars Cost After Inflation from 1950-2020 Posted: 22 May 2022 11:15 PM PDT Inflation has caused many household items, food, travel, homes and vehicles to sky rocket. This graphic from titlemax.com breaks down the price of popular vehicles over the years and how much they would cost with adjusted inflation. Starting in 1914 with the Ford Model T, people got their first taste of a consumer vehicle they could actually afford. Once more and more Americans were able to afford vehicles, a numbered highway system was introduced. In 1908 the Model T would have cost you $825. Adjusted for inflation, that would be around $24,835 today. Looking back through history, this chart takes the most popular cars from 1950 to 2020 along with their price in 2020 dollars. The Dodge Coronet was an inexpensive and popular choice for families in the 1950’s costing just over $10,000 with inflation. Just two years later in 1952 the Buick Roadmaster would be the most popular choice but came with a much higher price tag, costing $33,124.00 today. The Jeep Dispatcher would take over in 1956 costing only just over 13 thousand dollars. It wasn’t until 1961 that the first popular sports car, the Jaguar E-Type would hit the streets with an eye watering price tag of over $52,000 dollars today. The 60’s were also a popular time for the Volkswagen Beetle which was the most popular car in 1966 costing buyers only $12,660 in today’s dollars. One of the most popular cars of the 70’s was the Chevy Monte Carlo which had a price tag of just under 20 thousand dollars (with inflation). The most expensive car on this list is the 2006 Audi R8, which if it was purchased with today’s dollar would cost close to $150k. In 2020, one of the most popular cars was the Lexus IS which had a price tag of $39,050. ![]() The post How Much Brand New Cars Cost After Inflation from 1950-2020 appeared first on Infographics Archive. |
