GREEN IT

Green IT is basically the use of computers and IT technology in an environmentally sustainable and efficient way Putting environmental sustainability into IT 850 million computers worldwide

Green IT can be separated into three separate sections: Energy efficiency Smaller monitors are more efficient than larger ones  Most laptop computers use about 15-60 watts Desktops use between 65-250 watts

Reducing Toxic E-waste>>Mercury and Cadmium Recyclability Recycled paper, recycled inker cartridges Biodegradability Reducing Toxic E-waste>>Mercury and Cadmium

Benefits Conserves energy Reduces costs, particularly with large corporations Saves money Reduces carbon pollution Helps the environment Helps discover alternatives technologies Creates more environmentally friendly products

How to be GREEN with IT One computer to a household Sharing computers and printers Turning off your monitor and computer when not in use Using recycled paper Recycling of computers/proper disposal of computers Alternatives to computers

Company Initiatives Hewlett Packard Energy and sustainability management 5 step plan to Green Computing Develop a sustainable green computing plan Recycle Make environmentally sound purchase decisions Reduce paper consumption Conserve Energy

Disadvantages False advertising of green devices leading to more air pollution. High initial cost leads to reluctance over adopting green methods. Technology not readily available Performance quality sacrificed Small bothersome tasks. (sharing the one computer, using recycled paper)

Damn, should have unplugged my monitor…

Don’t you just hate it when someone turns you on and just leaves SAVE ENERGY!! Don’t you just hate it when someone turns you on and just leaves
