Reduce Energy Costs with Green Computing
Green Computing covers the purchasing and disposal of computers, technology energy use, and using computers to reduce waste. Reducing energy use and using computers to reduce other district energy costs offers the opportunity to bring focus to utility bills and reduce these costs - likely the second largest district expense behind personnel - and to do the right thing for our environment.
