Abstract
Green computing is the study and practice of using computing resources efficiently. It aims to reduce the use of hazardous materials, maximize energy efficiency during the product's lifetime, and promote recyclability or biodegradability of defunct products and factory waste. The plan towards green IT should include new electronic products and services with optimum efficiency. Green computing strategies can help us to build a safe place for us to live in .If each one of us becomes successful in constructing a healthy environmental balcony for ourselves then trust us we can together make our mother earth a healthy and a happy place for us to survive here.
Highlights
Thinking green means being aware of our interconnectedness with the world and reflecting on the unintended damage we cause nature in the daily course of our lives
The goals are to reduce the use of hazardous materials, maximize energy efficiency during the product's lifetime, and promote recyclability or biodegradability of defunct products and factory waste
The introduction of green technology projects such as the Low Carbon ICT Project at the University of Oxford are indicative of a positive trend, there is significant opportunity for theoretical and experimental research to be performed by computer scientists
Summary
Thinking green means being aware of our interconnectedness with the world and reflecting on the unintended damage we cause nature in the daily course of our lives. Green computing is the environmentally responsible use of computers and related resources. Making IT “Green” can save money but help save our world by making it a better place through reducing and/or eliminating wasteful practices and using nontoxic materials with computing technology firmly woven into the fabric of daily life, computer science educators are ideally suited to contribute to Green Computing education and research. Computer science educators can lead the way by incorporating Green Computing ideas into the curriculum and by making these ideas and techniques accessible to educators in other disciplines. This paper describes current Green Computing principles and approaches for reducing energy use and, the carbon footprint. With analysis of an empirical evaluation to support their use in the department and classroom and to offer insight into paths for Green Computing research. This paper focuses on technical approaches, the authors acknowledge that there are many other aspects of Green computing that deserve serious consideration
