Adopting Green IT

The idea of green computing are similar to the idea of green chemistry; reduce the use of hazardous materials, maximize energy efficiency during the product’s lifetime, and promote recyclability or biodegradability of defunct products and factory waste. By adopting a holistic approach and make the entire IT lifecycle green, we comprehensively and effectively address the environmental impacts of computing/IT. We are also addressing environmental sustainability along the following four complementary paths:

* Green use — reducing the energy consumption of computers and other information systems as well as using them in an environmentally sound manner

* Green disposal — refurbishing and reusing old computers and properly recycling unwanted computers and other electronic equipment

* Green design — designing energy-efficient and environmentally sound components, computers, servers, cooling equipment, and data centers

* Green manufacturing — manufacturing electronic components, computers, and other associated subsystems with minimal impact on the environment
