Climate Savers Computing

AMD, Dell, the EPA, Google, Intel, Microsoft, the World Wildlife Federation and others have joined in a common goal to reduce power consumption by computers. The goal of the Climate Savers Computing Initiative is to reduce power consumption by 50% by 2010.

A specific target is a 90% efficiency for computer power supplies. This change alone would reduce greenhouse gas emissions by millions of tons per year and save over $5 million in energy costs.
