Green Computing: A Solution to Electronic Pollution

Electronic pollution is the most dangerous in today’s world. Electronic pollution comes from e-waste that is electronic wastage. Electronic waste does not means only waste materials of computer and its peripheral devices like keyboard, mouse, scanner, printer, tonner, printer inks, tapes etc. but e-waste also includes other electronics materials like our television and their CRT’s, bulbs, electronic shopping cards, power bank devices etc. All electronic scrap components, such as CRTs, may contain contaminants such as lead, cadmium, beryllium, or brominated flame retardants The solution for this problem is green computing. Green Computing or Green IT is a hot topic today and will continue to be an important issue for several years to come. Green computing is the study and practice of using computing resources efficiently.
