Table of Contents

“The Internet is the single biggest thing we’re going to build as a species. This is something if we build it the right way, with the right sources of energy, could really help power our transition to renewables. If we build it the wrong way, it could actually exacerbate the problem.”

— Gary Cook, Greenpeace

About

earth.txt is a proposed standard which allows websites to define environmental sustainability policies.

Quick Start

1. Create

1.1 Filename

Create a text file called earth.txt. Always use lower-case formatting for the filename.

1.2 Encoding

Make sure that the earth.txt file is UTF-8 encoded to avoid issues with special characters and multiple languages.

2. Place

2.1. well-known Directory

In principle, the earth.txt file should be placed under the /.well-known/ path of your website. For example:

https://example.com/.well-known/earth.txt

2.2. Root Directory

If the /.well-known/ directory cannot be used for technical reasons, or if you want to use a fallback option, the earth.txt file can also be placed in the root directory of your website. For example:

https://example.com/earth.txt

The earth.txt file can be placed in both locations of a website at the same time. Hence, the final directory structure for your website could look like this:

example.com/ ├── index.html ├── earth.txt └── .well-known └── earth.txt

3. Link

3.1. Head

Place a reference to the file using a “help” tag to the <head> section of your website. For example:

<link type="text/plain" rel="help" href="https://example.com/earth.txt"/>

3.2. Button

Embed a earth.txt button to your site and link it to your earth.txt file.

4. Serve

4.1. Internet Media Type

The earth.txt file should have an Internet Media Type of text/plain.

4.2. Protocol

The earth.txt file must be served over HTTPS.
