Abstract

The article focuses on Green Computing and how the Information Technology (IT) industry deals with it. According to sources, the IT industry is the biggest user of energy in the world. Some companies are trying to use cheaper data center power as energy saving methods. Green Computing for these companies means cutting costs. According to Jim Noble, chief information officer of Altria, green computing is on the minds of many companies but it is not motivated by eco-friendliness.
