Abstract

With the widespread computing technologies, are deployed in every aspect of life including health, education, communication, transportation. In the industry, the technology evolution has been expected to affect the environment somehow, which is recently has been proved. The latest researches taken these critical environmental issues seriously to analysis and design more efficient and safe technologies to aid the planet safety. Green Computing is one of the new designed environmentally-friendly solutions which is concerned on improving the manufacturing, recycling and disposing used methods to provide more clean and healthy new generation of technologies devices. This review paper provide an analysis of the current green computing initiatives and comprehensive comparison between them in how efficient they are.
