You and your roommate decide to reduce your environmental impact by recycling more, going paperless, and using environmentally safe cleaning products. You know you also can use green computing tactics to reduce electronic waste, minimize power use, and more. Create a list of five reasons why you should add green computing to your efforts. List 10 ways you can apply green computing to your daily life.

Comment on a peer post:

-Green computing on social life- it has been shown that green computing can help reduce stress levels in society. This encourages people to be more aware of their surroundings.

-Carbon footprint- it can be observed that green computing can be used not only to reduce carbon footprints but also to enhance the overall performance of society-specific networks.

-Socio economic framework- An integrated framework that can be used to provide green-computing capabilities for large-scale and technical issues.

-Learning powered devices- These devices have the inherent advantages of being flexible, adaptive, and highly effective in real-time deployments

-Green computing and blue color work- This enhances the overall system performance, thereby reducing the carbon footprint for the entire building. These buildings can be rated using standard rating mechanisms

-Green computing and city planning- All these standards give maximum weightage to energy consumption optimization, pollution control, localization, site-planning, water utility, and well-being of individuals staying in the society.
