Electronic waste is a global problem and is increasing day by day. E-waste disposes toxins that are hazardous to the environment and are dangerous to humans that are exposed to them. These toxins consist of mercury, lead, cadmium, arsenic, and selenium and when they are burnt they create toxic emissions that harm human health. Presently computing is not environment friendly. The study and practice of using computing resources efficiently is known as Green Computing. Green computing helps in reducing the use of hazardous materials, promote biodegradability of defunct products and factory waste and also maximizes energy efficiency during the product's lifetime.
