Abstract

Green Computing works on sustainable or environmentally responsible computing, which helps to improve efficient use of resources while minimizing environmental impacts. With the rapid changes in artificial intelligence AI, the Internet of Things, with the increasing demand for energy-intensive infrastructure has surged, making green computing more important than ever. AI offers innovative solutions to these challenges in different area of the IT industry contributes significantly to global electricity consumption and e-waste generationAI-driven systems can helps in optimize data center cooling, manage energy loads, predict equipment failures, and enhance hardware lifecycle management. Machine learning models are gradually more applied to resource monitoring, reducing power usage, and promoting predictive recycling strategies. International frameworks such as Energy Star, EPEAT, RoHS, and ISO standards provide a foundation, but integrating AI into these practices accelerates efficiency and sustainability. Despite challenges like high costs and limited awareness, the synergy between AI and green computing paves the way for a future where technological progress aligns with environmental responsibility.
