The global datasphere is large and growing rapidly. Storage and distribution of that data already represents a significant and growing contributor to global carbon. Significant carbon savings can be achieved by enabling already powered and deployed drives to be more fully utilized during their lifetime.

In this white paper, you'll learn how Storj achieves carbon savings by:

• Increasing the effective life and utilization of existing drives
• Minimizing the number of copies of data that need to be stored
• Enabling a carbon efficient distribution of storage
