Green Computing: Protect Our Environment from Computer and its Devices
Keywords:
Green IT, Green Computing, Eco-friendly Devices, Environment, Carbon Dioxide (CO2), Solar ComputingAbstract
Computer is the basic need of everyone and everybody use computer for its own purpose but no one is aware about the injurious impact of the use of computer on our environment and its devices. The concept of green computing is about environmentally responsible and eco-friendly use of computers and there resources. Besides the extensive sensitively to ecological issues, energy, costs, such interest also seems from economic needs and electrical requirement of IT around the world show a continuously growing trend. In this paper, we will discuss how can protect our environment by the comparative study of computing devices from the injurious impact of computer and Eco-friendly devices. The comparative study suggest that we can save generous amount of power, make environment green and while saving the cost.
