The climate change is primarily caused by the greenhouse effect that increases through human activities and more specifically by carbon dioxide (CO2). This mainly happens because of the human need to produce more energy, so it can be used in services and in production. Obviously WWW is part of the problem since it is supported by a large number of data centers, which main function is to provide guaranteed reliable service, security and connectivity to the rest of the Internet via a high-capacity backbone. Data centers consume significant amounts of energy. According to News York Times data centers in the United States consume more than 1 billion watts of electricity each year. The aim of this book is to study possible methods that can be applied to media websites in order to reduce power consumption and to educate internet users on environmental issues. Some of the issues that the study addresses are: Whether the servers are powered by renewable sources of energy, the ecological graphic design of the websites, and the existence of energy saving mode, the prevention of printing articles, whether newspapers inform their readers about environmental issues and the interdependence or participation in actions related to environment protection.

For a couple of decades now, designers have used Photoshop to mock up Web page designs. However, that work generally results in a static graphic of the page, which has to be translated by a developer into the components of a Web page: HTML files and Web-compatible image files. Our multi-device world has shown us that this approach to web design, including full-page comps done in Photoshop, is increasingly problematic. Modern web designers are adopting a new approach: creating flexible web pages whose layout can adapt to suit the screen on which they are displayed. This is "Responsive Web Design" [RWD]. Until now, books on designing responsive Web sites have focused on HTML and CSS - in other words, they've been very code-centric, and visual creativity seems to take a back seat. This new book is aimed at the visual Web designer who's accustomed to working in Photoshop. Adobe Photoshop CC contains many new features that help streamline the process of converting a static page design to a set of components for a responsive web page. Dan Rose is one of the best-known advocates of this new way of working in Photoshop. He's observed that only a few people are talking about Photoshop for RWD constructively, yet a majority (63% as of his last informal poll) of web designers are using Photoshop for more than simple asset creation. This transition is a pain point for many designers. His new book will balance coverage of conceptual issues (how to fit tools like Photoshop to the design workflow rather than fitting a workflow to the tools) with practical design exercises tailored to help communicate the overall design direction of the page while respecting the needs of the fluid Web. In addition, he will introduce methods for taking HTML back into Photoshop for further refinement.
