    GREEN COMPUTING

    Green computing can be described as the environmentally responsible usage of


    computer system and related resources. It can also be termed as practice or study
    of efficient and eco-friendly computing. It is also study of designing, manufacturing,
    using and disposing of computers, servers and associated sub systems such as
    monitors, printers ,shortage devices etc effectively and efficiently.
    Why Green Computing is important
    Following are the main reasons for green computing establishment.
    1. As we are familiar with the dangerous impacts of plastic but electronic waste
    is more dangerous than plastic.
    2. The development and invention of an electronic device we use different kind
    of material such as arsenic, antinomy and lead etc.
    3. Disposal of such above mention material harmful to the nature and
    environment.

    Importance of Green Computing


    Green computing is growing public environmental awareness. Increasing impacts on
    environmental and human health as well as it is giving benefits to the whole world.

    Reducing energy consumption


    By adopting the green computing methods we have minimize the electricity
    consumption so it has also increased the profit of the organization because business
    depends upon energy.
    a.
    b.
    c.
    d.
    e.

    Turnoff computers when not in use even for an hour.


    Turn off monitor when not in use
    Use hardware and software with the energy star label.
    Dont print unnecessary
    Use LCD instead of CRT as they consume more power.

    Save more money per year


    As green computing use less energy so automatically we will save more money with
    less use of resources and by doing efficient work.
    And the most important thing is that the green computing will actually translate the
    much lower carbon dioxide emission.
    Operating system support
    Windows 7 includes the refinements for more efficient user of operating system
    timers, process power management and display panel brightness. Linux Os utilizing
    less power than any other OS.

    Methods of green computing

    1. Green disposal
    2. Reuse: give your computer to those who dont have or have less quality.
    3. Refurbish: upgrade your computer, change some of its parts to make it new.
    4. Recycle: recycle the printed circuit board from the electronic wastes.

    2. Green design
    Designing energy efficient computers and other digital device.
    3 .Green manufacturing
    Use greener technology is minimizing waste during the manufacturing of computers
    and other sub system to reduce the environmental impact of these activities .for
    example recyclable plastic, volume reduction etc.
    4: Green use
    Minimizing the electricity consumption. Energy star concept is on rise.
    General suggestion
    a. Change your subscription to online not paper
    b. Change from XP to Window 7
    c. LCDs over CRTs
    d. Laptops over desktop
    e. Decrease screen brightness.
