Single point of failure and web servers.

The books have this property to be printed in numbers and distributed across locations, making a lot harder to completely destroyed the information. Same for mailing lists, etc.

In computer OSes, create a general setting where you can input the price of a kW/h (that is usually available from your electricity bills).

Then have a dashboard of energy consumption per apps on the OS displaying the cost for the last couple of hours, days, weeks, years.

You could even add a helper to suggest ways to improve/reduce these consumptions.
