Green Web Foundation Admin Portal
Welcome to the administration system for the Green Web Foundation.
This is the system visible at https://admin.thegreenwebfoundation.org.
It lets staff working for hosting companies update information about how they power the their infrastructure and generates the open datasets we publish each month.
