Abstract

Green computing, the study and practice of efficient and ecofriendly computing resources Green computing i.e. green technology, is the environmentally sustainable to use of computers and devices. The principle behind energy efficient coding is to save power by getting software to make less use of the hardware, rather than continuing to run the same code on hardware that uses less power. It has also given utmost attention to minimization of e-waste and use of non-toxic materials in preparation of e-equipments. We use Green Computing because it- reduced energy usage from green computing techniques translates into lower carbon dioxide emissions, stemming from a reduction in the fossil fuel used in power plants and transportation. Conserving resources means less energy is required to produce, use, and dispose of products, saving energy and resources saves money. Green computing even includes changing government policy to encourage recycling and lowering energy use by individuals and businesses. In this paper focus on some aspects of green computing i.e . approaches and implementation.
