Green IT is all in the hardware, right? Not anymore, it isn’t.
Hewlett-Packard just began its Power to Change campaign, an initiative designed to promote sustainable energy practices among computer users across the entire country. As part of the effort, HP has released on the campaign’s website a gadget that can reportedly reduce the energy used by your computer by up to .646 kilowatt hours every day. Taking a step back and viewing energy savings over the long term, one could see a major reduction in the carbon footprint of any frequently used PC. Other companies have launched similar gadgets and widgets, encouraging consumers and professionals alike to power down their PCs when not in use.
