The regulation and industry initiatives towards Green Computing (NUR NAZIHAH AHMAD RIDZUAN, 10DNS11F1065))


Every big change begins from small initiatives. For instance, we started some of the
simple but effective initiatives like setting the power options on your computer or in phones
to switch to sleep mode when it's not active. When you're going to be away from your PC for
more than a few minutes, setting it to stand-by mode and turning off the monitor will save a
huge amount of energy.
      Besides, it will reduce energy usage, which also reduces carbon dioxide emissions and your energy bill, is the most effective thing we can do. The average PC wastes about half the energy provided to it, according to the Climate Savers Computing Initiative, an industry group dedicated to reducing greenhouse-gas emissions. We should encourage employees to shut down their PCs or put them into sleep mode when not working on them and the energy will reduce.
