Living green in the modern world

Green computing and living in a grey world can be difficult at times, below is some research that I did regarding green computing


I like Finland's green initiatives towards green tech and cloud computing. "Excess heat from hundreds of computer servers to be located in the bedrock beneath Uspenski Cathedral, one of Helsinki's most popular tourist sites, will be captured and channeled into the district heating network, a system of water-heated pipes used to warm homes in the Finnish capital."
Cloud Computing's Green Mantra And How Finland Is Doing It Right

Many people and corporations are seeing not only green, but also profit from green. Can it happen overnight?

  • "Green IT 2.0", and "Green IP 2.0"
  • Eco-Patent Commons
  • "Dell aspires to be the greenest technology company on the planet" - Dell Earth
  • Gimmick maybe but visually yummy! - ASUS Bamboo Series
  • Green MacBook - "Greenest notebook Apple ever produced, built using materials that are highly recyclable and free of many harmful substances."
  • Living Green - Some great and simple solutions and reminders to living green in our modern world
