Green computing is the next wave in computing and aims to reduce the environmental impact of computers and their use. It helps reduce pollution and global warming by using less electricity and creating less toxic waste. Various approaches to green computing include improving energy efficiency through practices like power management, virtualization, and algorithmic efficiency. The advantages of green technology include energy savings, environmental friendliness and cost effectiveness over time, while disadvantages include higher initial costs and limited availability.
This document discusses green computing, which aims to reduce the environmental impact of computers and data centers. It outlines the goals of green computing such as using less hazardous materials and maximizing energy efficiency. Some techniques discussed include using more efficient CPUs and powering down systems in idle states. The document also highlights efforts by companies like HP, Dell, Apple, and Lenovo to make their hardware more sustainable through methods like increasing recycled content and offering take-back programs. Overall, the document advocates for green computing practices to reduce energy usage, carbon emissions, and electronic waste.
Green computing involves the environmentally friendly use and disposal of computers and associated equipment. The goals are to reduce hazardous materials, maximize energy efficiency, and promote recycling. Old computers should be donated to schools or charities if possible, and manufacturers will accept old monitors for recycling with new purchases. Items like monitors and CPUs contain toxic materials like mercury, cadmium, and lead if disposed of in landfills, so electronic waste must be properly recycled through organizations and programs.

A Journey to Power Intelligent IT - Big Data EmployedMohamed Sohail
Sustainability has become a hot topic as a result of significant concerns about the unintended social, environmental, and economic consequences of rapid population growth, economic growth, and consumption of our natural resources. For the IT industry in particular, a highly important consideration that affects the decisions of IT managers is data center power consumption and carbon emission.
Green computing refers to environmentally sustainable and efficient computing practices throughout a product's lifecycle. This includes green use through energy efficient computing, green disposal like recycling, green design of efficient components, and green manufacturing with low environmental impact. Approaches to green computing involve optimizing software and deployment, like virtualization and power management, as well as recycling materials to reduce waste. The goals are to minimize environmental impact and costs while maximizing performance and sustainability.
This document discusses green computing and provides an overview in three paragraphs or less:
Green computing involves the environmentally responsible use of computers and related resources through practices like virtualization, power management, efficient algorithms, recycling, and telecommuting. It aims to reduce the negative environmental impacts of computing like greenhouse gas emissions and electronic waste. Approaches to green computing include virtualizing servers to reduce energy usage, improving algorithm efficiency, enabling power management features, using more efficient power supplies and displays, recycling computer components, and allowing telecommuting to decrease transportation impacts. If adopted widely, green computing practices can help address the substantial environmental costs of the growing use of information technology.

Green IT is another term used to refer to IT sustainability
This document discusses the need for green data centers and provides strategies for making data centers more energy efficient. It notes that while many organizations say they are green, few have specific targets or programs to reduce their carbon footprint. As data center electricity consumption and costs rise, running out of power capacity, cooling capacity, and physical space are major concerns. The document then provides questions to assess a data center's energy efficiency in terms of facilities, IT equipment, and utilization rates. It recommends strategies like optimizing infrastructure utilization and choosing more efficient hardware and cooling options. The goal is to improve the data center infrastructure efficiency metric and lower costs by reducing redundant, underutilized resources.
This document describes Power Efficiency Management Software that helps businesses save energy and reduce costs by managing power usage of Windows PCs. It analyzes power usage, sets power management policies, and provides reports on energy and cost savings. Installation is easy and provides an quick return on investment. The software integrates an ecoButton device that empowers users to actively save more energy.
This document discusses approaches to green IT, including virtualization, power management, efficient storage, video cards, displays, remote conferencing, product longevity, algorithmic efficiency, resource allocation, terminal servers, and operating system support. It notes that data centers consume a huge amount of power for servers and cooling, costing $4.5 billion annually. Organizations can reduce their "data footprint" and deployment/management resources through technologies like database solutions for massive data analysis and open-source software. This helps save money and resources while making operations more environmentally friendly.
