Working on it...
Transferring 10 MB of data uses about the amount of energy in a AA battery which is 0.0039 kWh

Eureka, I have found the culprits, now we can point the finger at the ones truly responsables for global warming..
It's Romania and its outrageous internet speeds.

Just think, if every Romanian would use its grotesque Grin

and monstrous Grin

internet connection at full capacity just for one minute a month...
Let's see..
500Mbit/s > 60MB > 60 seconds, that's 3.6 GB a day.
You've said 0.0039kWh per 10 MB, so that's 1.4Khw a day, but there are 365 days and 20 million of you so that's 10 billion kWh/year or 20% of the power you produce in a year.

That's for one minute of full speed a day.
Time for a UN resolution limiting your speeds at some 10Mbits and tax you 50 euros a month.

Energy Expended

This one will soon need a new line, at current speeds we're doing at least 50,000,000,000 with best efficiency gear.

Ha ha! Good one.
Romania does have awesome internet speed but please don't send in the UN; there's too much bureaucracy already!
