Abstract

This research aims to demonstrate the role of green computing technology in reducing environmental costs by improving efficiency and minimizing the waste of natural resources. Green computing can address numerous environmental problems through a range of tools that reduce harmful environmental impacts and lower associated costs. By using green computing tools that reduce the environmental impact of electronic devices, decrease energy consumption, and manage electronic waste, a survey was conducted via an electronic questionnaire. The research reached several conclusions, the most important of which is that green computing contributes to reducing energy consumption and using resources in a way that Efficient and effective by reducing the number of devices used and designing devices in a way that minimizes energy consumption when not in use, thus reducing the volume of electronic waste and consequently reducing greenhouse gas emissions and global warming.
