- 4. Green computing is the environmentally responsible and eco-friendly use of computers and their resources. In broader terms, it is also defined as the study of designing, engineering, manufacturing, using and disposing of computing devices in a way that reduces their environmental impact.
- 5. Minimizing energy consumption Purchasing green energy Reducing the paper and other consumables used Minimizing equipment disposal requirements Reducing travel requirements for employees/customers
- 6. Reducing our carbon footprint is a top priority for IT Services and we have created a 'Green Strategy' to make sure the equipment we purchase and the services we offer contribute to looking after the environment. Energy Savings Reliability of Power
- 7. Green use: Minimizing the electricity consumption of computers and their peripheral devices and using them in an eco-friendly manner Green disposal: Repurposing existing equipment or appropriately disposing of, or recycling, unwanted electronic equipment
- 8. Green design: Designing energy-efficient computers, servers, printers, projectors and other digital devices Green manufacturing: Minimizing waste during the manufacturing of computers and other subsystems to reduce the environmental impact of these activities
