Ways to Prevent Global Warming
In a non-commercial project from Uniblue Research Labs, a computer program called LocalCooling can help cut into the problem of global warming. LocalCooling is a free power-management program you can download here, and it allows you to configure and optimize your computer’s energy management settings.
More than 30 billion kilowatt-hours of energy are wasted because many people just forget to shut down their computers when they aren’t using them. If we could just improve the efficiency of how we use our computers, the savings in energy costs would be over $3 billion dollars. The CO2 emissions from just 15 computers are equivalent, in energy terms, to the gas consumption of one car.
Obviously this isn’t going to solve the global warming problem, but small steps might just be the best way to cut into this problem and ultimately eliminate it. Computers are always going to be a part of our world, so the best thing we can do is make them as green as possible.
