Abstract

This research discusses Green Networking, an important concept in reducing the environmental impact of information and communication technology in the digital era. In this study, the author conducted secondary data analysis and reviewed published papers related to the implementation of green networking. The analysis results indicate that green networking has great potential to have a positive impact on the environment and reduce carbon emissions, but its implementation still faces several challenges such as higher costs and technological complexity. This research also discusses opportunities that can be taken in the implementation of green networking, such as improving energy efficiency in network infrastructure, developing renewable energy technologies, and increasing public awareness of the importance of preserving the environment through utilization of environmentally friendly technologies. Furthermore, future research and development of green networking are expected to be a primary focus in supporting sustainable development. In conclusion, this paper asserts that green networking has great potential to contribute to sustainable development and environmental preservation. However, the implementation of green networking requires collaboration among various parties, including industry, government, and society. With new innovations and increasing awareness of the importance of preserving the environment, it is expected that green networking can become an effective solution to reduce the environmental impact of information and communication technology in the future.
