Green Solutions: A Pilot Study on Green Technology and Green Computing

Saptarshi Bhattacharyya
Green Technology(GT) and Green Computing now-a-days are most two important issues
in the present IT scenario. Green Computing primarily concerned about efficient use of
computer power management, minimum discharge of carbon dioxide and to recycle e-
waste to make the environment sustainable. Green Technology is one step above Green
Computing where the people much more concerned about how to minimize any kind of
technology related hazards and to make this globe safe for the use of coming
generations. In the present study the authors concentrate on the need for Green
Technology and to make this globe sustainable for the coming years. Due to the alarming
degradation of the overall environmental situations over the whole world, it is very much
needed that the researchers should propose some environmental technical solutions in
more or less all fields of technology. Such technical solution are proposed to substitute
the traditional high-cost , pollution prone strategies. These are basically known as Green
Solutions(GS). Not only it is bounded in only IT and Electronics ,it is even in turn
responsible for sustainable development of socioeconomic condition in developing
countries. This paper analyses these Green Solutions along with their specific area of
application. This study also includes what are the relative advantages and pitfalls. Finally
the authors also explore the current trend in Green Computing and how it is successfully
adopted is thoroughly discussed in subsequent sections. I. INTRODUCTION The term
―Green‖ is strongly coupled with environment. So when we talk about ―Green
Computing‖,then it is quite obvious that we are finding some solutions ,rather than
strategies to build software products efficiently with minimum impact on environment
.Developing a software product is not only bound to writing it`s core code, but also it
includes several phases starting from planning to maintenance. If we want to build energy
efficient green software, we have to make the whole process ―Green‖. Global warming
is a serious issue today ,probably the most worrying threat to our planet at the present
time is global warming. Green computing and the use of energy efficient green
technologies can reduce this scaring impact of global warming. All we know the
continuous use of non-recyclable energy resources can lead us to the dead end of the

civilization. The predominant factors resulting in the warming of the earth are the
emissions of CO 2 and deforestation. CO 2 , which damages the ozone layer, comes from
several sources, but the most problematic are those coming from the burning of fossil
fuels from power plants. This releases thousands tons of CO 2 into the atmosphere every
year. Another cause of these emissions is the burning of gasoline for transportation,
which continues to increase because of our demand for cars and also our increasing
worldwide consumption, resulting in an increasing need to transport goods. Also, forests
store large amounts of carbon, so deforestation is causing larger amounts of CO 2 to
remain in the atmosphere. Nevertheless, there are potential ways to solve these
problems, or at least reduce the effects. Firstly, governments need to reduce our
dependence on fossil fuels and promote alternatives. Plant-derived plastics, bio-diesel,
wind power and solar power are all things that are a step in the right direction. But these
things merely represent solutions in a fuzzy manner. So brief discussion is strongly
needed in order to enforce the application of these strategies in modern real life scenario.
More precisely, we need to mention the specific areas with corresponding remedies.
However, in this paper the authors concentrate on only one such field-The modern IT and
Electronics Industry and here an attempt is made to analyze different green strategies
that is applicable in this particular area. In order to make this green movement a big
success, governments need to take some initiatives such as use of electronic documents
in governments sectors rather using paper documents, because all we know paper
production industry is totally based on forest removal program, this could be dangerous
for environment. Moreover the maintenance of paper documents is a highly tedious job
and security issue is also a matter. All these problems can be solved by the use of e-
documents(such as Electronic Forms, PDF documents ,Electronic Mails).This is very
useful both in terms of cost and effort. Government can launch the environment
awareness program in school ,colleges to ensure the efficient use of energy resources.
Not only any governing body ,but also individuals can play a part by making lifestyle
changes. People should try to buy cars with the best fuel economy, and only use their car
when really necessary. They can also switch to energy companies

Green Computing: Eco Friendly Technology
Jugraj Singh
2016

— Green computing is the study and practice of efficient and eco-friendly computing.
Green computing is also called as green technology. 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. Green computing is
the environmentally responsible use of computers and related resources. Such practices
include the implementation of energy-efficient central processing units (CPUs), servers
and peripherals as well as reduced resource consumption and proper disposal of
electronic waste (e-waste).Green computing is also necessary for the future generation

A Review of Issues and Challenges to Address the Problem of Implementing Green
Computing for Sustainability
jumana Abdullah Kareem
AL Rafdain Engineering Journal, 2023

In a larger sense, "green computing" refers to strategies and procedures for creating,
utilizing, and disposing of computer resources in three ways: maintaining total computing
performance, minimizing the impact on the environment, and maintaining overall
computing performance. This entails using less dangerous materials, getting the most
usage possible out of a product while using the least amount of energy possible, as well
as making old items and the garbage more reusable, recyclable, and biodegradable.
Many businesses are making efforts to lessen the negative effects of activities on the
environment. The framework Convention on Climate Change of the United Nations
(UNFCC)is a global environmental agreement whose goal is to keep greenhouse gas
emissions stable to a degree that would prevent adverse anthropogenic interference with
the environment. Sustainable development entails growth that doesn't jeopardize the
needs of coming generations. That is achieving human development goals while
protecting the ecosystems and natural resources that are essential to civilization. The
relevance of green computing for sustainable development is emphasized in this paper's
assessment of many significant recent studies on the subject.

Francis Devaraj
The environment is the surroundings or conditions in which a human being, animal, or
plant lives or operates. It is the sole responsibility of human being (a social animal) to
safe guard the nature. With the invention of new technologies, there is a threat to the
nature and resulted in global warming. Global warming means an increase in the earth's
average atmospheric temperature that causes corresponding changes in climate and that
may result from the green house effect. With Information Technology at its peak, it is also
contributing heavily to global warming. Hence, Green computing. Green Computing is the
study and practices of designing, manufacturing, using & disposing of computers, servers
and associated subsystems of computers such as monitors, printers, storage devices and
networking and communications systems efficiently and effectively with minimal or no
impact on the environment. Most of the IT Companies / Departments are a source for
excessive power use, excessive spending of resources and uses many toxic materials. In
this paper we discuss about several issues in the EcoSystem because of IT ,Current
Green computing Technologies , proposed practices and potential research areas in
