8. Tactics to make computing more green: Turn off computers at the end of each day Try refurbishing an existing device Refill printer cartridges, rather than buying new ones

9. Tactics to make computing more green: Use the hibernate or sleep mode Use flat-screen or LCD monitors Buy energy efficient notebook computers Activate the power management features for controlling energy consumption Proper electronic waste disposal

10. Green Computing Tips Buy "Energy Star" compliant peripherals Switch things off when not in use Take proper care of your laptop batteries Reduce paper consumption Use recycled paper

11. Green Computing Tips Don't throw your old, obsolete computer away

12. Action Plan for Green Computing Using ENERGY STAR qualified products help in energy conservation. The Climate Savers Computing Initiative (CSCI) catalogue can be used for choosing green products. Organic light-emitting diodes should be used instead of the regular monitors. Donating your old computers and other peripherals can reduce the rate of e-waste creation
