Green computing reduce the use of hazardous materials, maximize energy efficiency during the products lifetime, and promote the recyclability or biodegradability or defunct products and factory waste Green Computing, or green IT, aims to attain economic viability and improve the way computing devices are used. Green IT practices include the development of environmentally sustainable production practices, energy efficient computers and improved disposal and recycling procedures.
In 1992, the US Environmental Protection Agency launched Energy Star, a voluntary labeling program which
is designed to promote and recognize energy efficiency in monitors, climate control equipment, and other
technologies. “Green computing" was probably coined shortly after the Energy Star program began.
Energy management has always been an important topic for laptop manufacturers, who have been working on this for years as they struggled to manage weight versus battery life issues.
