Green Computing
Green computing is the use of computers and related resources in an environmentally responsible manner. This involves the implementation of energy-efficient central processing units (CPUs), servers and peripherals as well as proper disposal of electronic waste (e-waste).
WHY IS GREEN COMPUTING?
- Electricity usage accounted for by computers and electronic gadgets is soaring.
- Even though many items have become more efficient over time the recent demand for electronics and their use has skyrocketed.
- Green computing is important because it is helping to minimize the energy used in computing by educating consumers on efficient ways to keep power usage low, by creating more economic electronics, and by encouraging safe and complete recycling.
GOALS OF GREEN COMPUTING
- Reduce the use of hazardous materials.
- Promote recycle ability or ability of defunct products and factory waste.
- Maximize energy efficiency during the product's lifetime.
Four complementary paths:
- Green use
- Green disposal
- Green design
- Green manufacturing
Basic Elements Of Green Computing:
- System Unit
- Display
- Manufacturing
How to Approach Green Computing?
