Additional Experience
Reducing the CO2 emissions of this website
The intention of this website is not to give a full overview with good quality images, but to give a basic overview of what I have worked throughout my career. If you are interested in knowing more or seeing better quality images of my work, please contact me.
Images
After videos, images are the heaviest items on websites in terms of data, therefore, I have tried to keep the number of images to a minimum, as well as, reduced their size and quality. I believe the images available portrays a good enough and basic view of what I have worked on.
Lazy Loading
Lazy loading has been added to the images as it reduces page weight, allowing for a quicker page load time. It helps to also conserve users bandwidth by delivering content to users only if it's requested. Reducing page weight also means less data is stored in servers, therefore, producing less carbon emissions.
Green Hosting
This website is hosted on Greensta. The servers are situated in Germany, therefore, reducing the distance the data has to travel and are powered 100 % renewable energy from Green Planet Energy.
