Green IT: Sustainable Practices for Energy Efficient Computing
The rapid growth of digital technologies has led to a significant increase in energyconsumption and carbon emissions associated with Information Technology (IT)systems. Green Information Technology (Green IT) has emerged as a criticalapproach to reduce the environmental impact of computing infrastructures. This paperpresents a case study of Antarctica.io, a climate-technology platform designed tomeasure, analyze, and reduce digital carbon footprints. The study examines theplatform's working model, features, benefits, and challenges, with a focus on itsdashboard-based visualization system. The findings indicate that Antarctica.ioenables organizations to improve energy efficiency, enhance transparency, andsupport sustainable decision-making. The paper concludes that integrating Green ITpractices with real-time analytics tools is essential for achieving long-termenvironmental sustainability in the digital era.
