Green computing or green IT, refers to environmentally sustainable computing or IT. In the article Harnessing Green IT: Principles and Practices, San Murugesan defines the field of green computing as "the study and practice of designing, manufacturing, using, and disposing of computers, servers, and associated subsystems—such as monitors, printers, storage devices, and networking and communications systems—efficiently and effectively with minimal or no impact on the environment."^[1] The goals of green computing are similar to green chemistry; reduce the use of hazardous materials, maximize energy efficiency during the product's lifetime, and promote the recyclability or biodegradability of defunct products and factory waste. Research continues into key areas such as making the use of computers as energy-efficient as possible, and designing algorithms and systems for efficiency-related computer technologies.

Greening" your computing equipment is a low-risk way for your business to not only help the
environment but also reduce costs. It's also one of the largest growing trends in business today

Reducing energy usage, which also reduces carbon dioxide emissions and your energy bill, is the
most effective thing you can do. The average PC wastes about half the energy provided to it, according to
the Climate Savers Computing Initiative, an industry group dedicated to reducing greenhouse-gas
emissions. You should encourage employees to shut down their PCs or put them into sleep mode when
not working on them. Nesbitt recommends implementing thin clients produced by Neoware to reduce the TCO of your company’s computing    environment.

Green computing, the study and practice of efficient and eco-friendly computing resources, is now under the attention of not only environmental organizations, but also businesses from other industries. In recent years, companies in the computer industry have come to realize that going green is in their best interest, both in terms of public relations and reduced costs. This article will take a look at several green initiatives currently under way in the computer industry, as well as issues that have been raised regarding these initiatives. We will also have a talk with VIA to learn more about the future of green computing

The Green Computing Initiative], stewards of the industry standard EFGCD® – Eco-Friendly Green Computing Definition defines Eco-Friendly Green Computing as the study and practice of the design, development, implementation, utilization and disposal of IT infrastructure efficiently and effectively with low or zero impact on the environment whilst reducing operating costs.

Currently the ICT industry is responsible for 3% of the world's energy consumption. With the rate of consumption increasing by 20% a year, 2030 will be the year when the world's energy consumption will double because of the ICT industry.

Organizations use the Green Computing Lifecycle when designing and implementing green computing technologies. The stages in the Lifecycle include Strategy, Design, Implementation, Operations and Continual Improvements.

SYIRA   

 The 5 core green computing technologies advocated by GCI are Green Data Center, Virtualization, Cloud Computing, Power Optimization and Grid Computing.

Green Home Computing and You

The world is facing a meltdown. The environment is in a crisis. Asia is being hit with typhoons and floods. Africa is facing droughts. Europe literally freezes over. North America has a little bit of it all. Planet earth is calling out for help. If you are the type of person that thinks your efforts, no matter how little, don’t or won’t help, you are very wrong. If you care about the future of our children and want to share in the effort to preserve it, read on to find out how you can help whenever you switch your computer on.

meaning

-Green computing or green IT, refers to environmentally sustainable computing or IT.

- San Murugesan defines the field of green computing as "the study and practice of designing, manufacturing, using, and disposing of computers, servers, and associated subsystems—example:monitors, printers, storage devices, and networking and communications systems-

- reduce the use of hazardous materials, maximize energy efficiency during the product's lifetime, and promote the recyclability or biodegradability of defunct products and factory waste.

Go for Green Computing and save environment

Green computing means efficient use of resources in computing. Green technology is one of the best solution to create an environmentally friendly user environment. Green Computing smartly uses all electronic resources and integrating conservation into every task.

The fast-moving pace of technology is good news for gadget lovers, but not such good news for the environment. As the use electronic products is increasing day by day, the electronic scrap containing toxic chemicals which cannot be disposed off safely is also increasing. Green Computing is a solution for this growing concern.
