mrmurphy.dev€11 for 18 Minutes: My GreenPT Experiment Hit 10M Input TokensI've been trying to figure out how to make my AI usage less damaging to the environment. Most of my experiments so far have been about running local models on my MacBook, which uses way less power than an RTX card, or using small models like DeepSeek V4 Flash on OpenCode Go. Then I found GreenPT. They host smaller models in data centers that run on renewable energy and use less water for cooling. I made an account, loaded €25, and started a session with GLM-5.2 — a much stronger model than the ones I'd been using.

What’s the line between “green enough” to keep using and “green enough” to stop optimizing?

Good question. I think optimizing is a never ending process while using to build.
