Green Web Host

I was reading about fair trade yesterday and suddenly the idea of green ecological web hosting came up?
Does it exist? A quick search brought up a few solar/wind energy powered hosts/datacenters in the U.S. and one in Canada. Very surprisingly or maybe not so surprisingly I could’t find one in Germany. Not one! Pretty disappointing for a country where the spirit of enviromental protection has quite saturated the society.
And it’s so easy to switch. Just ask your electricity provider to switch your “line” to eco power. Yes, it does cost more but a I would happily pay (a bit) more for a green host.
