Abstract | Down the past years, the number of computer and Internet users has been constantly increasing in several countries and today, more and more youngsters are starting to use computers at an earlier age be it at home or in educational institutions. In many countries around the world, computer literacy among youngsters is being promoted since a very young age where computer studies are being taught in schools. However, this increase in the computer usage has led to an increase in power consumption which adversely affects the environment mainly due to the non-renewable power production techniques currently being employed. |
