Green computing aims to minimize the environmental impact of computers and electronic waste. It involves designing, manufacturing, and disposing of computers and peripherals in an environmentally-friendly way. One of the first fully "green" computer components was invented in the 1990s in Dublin and was designed to be non-hazardous and fully recyclable.

The goal is to make all computer components fully recyclable and reusable.
