Abstract:
In recent years there has been a substantial rise in the usage of computing devices throughout the world, rise in data centers has also been noticed for the same. Increasing data centers has resulted in rise to carbon and other harmful gases also more and more consumption of power can be seen due to increasing use of computing devices and data centers worldwide. Green computing, Green IT, or information & communication technologies (ICT) sustainability, is basically an approach taken forward to build up devices and components that are environment friendly which would help save our environment from the hazardous effects of harmful gases and will little impact our environment. Sustainable approach towards green computing will be helpful in designing and development of computing resources without affecting the environment. This paper draws an insight overview towards the importance of green computing in this demanding world of technology and explains how essential it is to protect our environment from green house gas emission caused due to computing devices. Appropriate usage and disposal of devices are can play an important step to sustain the environment
