We really can't deny the fact that computers are very essential in everyone's life. It’s part of our personal needs, most especially to us, students. We do our projects, paper works and our research with the help of computers (particularly the internet). Green campus computing is a study based on how we can conserve energy and resources but still using the gadget or technologies, in other words, green campus computing refers to proper ways of using computers.
Based on my research, I’ve collected some practical tips on how green computing can be adopted in our school.
· Do not leave the computer running when no one is using it. (turn off the computer when not in use)
· If you still want to relax after a long period of research (and still not yet done) put off your monitor or put it into standby mode.
· Review documents or your papers before printing (this will conserve ener
gy at the same time bond papers).
· Recycle papers when printing. (Preferably, print at the back).
· Turn off speakers or enhancements when not in use.
· Use e-mail as an alternative communication (whether you want it to pass documents to your friends etc.) instead of printing them out.
· And most of all orient the employees and students on how to be responsible in using computers. (cooperation is the word)
