Green Information Technology (IT) refers to the environmentally sustainable use of technology and focuses on reducing environmental impacts i.e., material and energy burdens while meeting our information and communication demands. By adopting sustainable practices in the use, design, and disposal of technology, Green IT helps to reduce energy consumption, e-waste, and carbon emissions.
