Why is Green Computing required? Computer consumes a lot of energy. Printing often
unnecessary stuff is waste, Reduce pollution. Toxicity. Green Computing 3

Vistory It originated in 1992 at the U.S Environmental Protection Agency that launched Energy
Star program. Shortly after that the term ³Green Computing ³ was coined. Shortly after that the
Swedish also launched the TCO Certification. Green Computing 4

Reducing the energy consumption. Turn off the computer when not in use, even if just for an
hour Turn off the monitor when not in use (as opposed to running a screen saver) Use power
saver mode Green Computing 10

Reducing the energy consumption. Use LCDs instead of CRTs as they are more power efficient
Use hardware/software with the Energy Star label Don¶t print unless required. Choose Intel &
VIA Processors in comparison to AMD Processors. Green Computing 11
