The relevance of IT in the context of climate change

Berikut ini adalah pertanyaan dari muhammadimas917 pada mata pelajaran B. inggris untuk jenjang Sekolah Menengah Atas

The relevance of IT in the context of climate change is because IT uses a large amount of energy in its operations. As an illustration, a desktop computer (PC) consumes 868 KW of electrical energy per year. If one company uses 20,000 PCS, the energy used is equivalent to 12,467 metric tons of carbon dioxide gas (CO2). The carbon dioxide gas is equivalent to gas emissions from 2,384 vehicles, or fuel consumption of 28,994 barrels of oil, or electricity use by 1,619 households for a year. This example is only from one company and only PC equipment, not including other devices such as air conditioners (AC) and others.To realise the green IT concept, virtualisation, power management, material recycling and telecommuting approaches are implemented. The use of virtualisation technology can reduce the number of physical servers because only one virtual server is needed to replace several real servers, thus power consumption is only needed for one server. The use of power management for IT devices, both PCs, storage, and displays, can reduce the power consumption. The implementation of a computer material recycling process must go through stages of an environmentally friendly process. The promotion of telecommuting is the principle of remote work that can reduce human travel. This reduction of human travel has the advantage not only of reducing congestion and energy consumption, but also reducing vulnerability to opportunities for crime and terrorism.

Optimising the use of existing infrastructure, properly maintaining its Existence, and using it wisely so that ICT equipment in its operation uses energy effectively is one way to support efforts to tackle climate change in terms of the efficient and effective use of ICT tools.

Jawaban dan Penjelasan

Berikut ini adalah pilihan jawaban terbaik dari pertanyaan diatas.

Jawaban:

  1. The claim in the text is that IT uses a large amount of energy in its operations, and that this contributes to climate change.
  2. The author presents the reason why we need a green IT principle in the sentence "To realise the green IT concept, virtualisation, power management, material recycling and telecommuting approaches are implemented."
  3. The author presents evidence and facts such as the energy consumption of a desktop computer, the equivalent carbon dioxide emissions, and examples of potential solutions such as virtualization and power management.
  4. If you change your computer each year, it contributes to the environmental impact of production and disposal of the old computer.
  5. Computers play a role in exacerbating climate change because they use a large amount of energy in their operations.
  6. The usage of computers contributes to climate change through their energy consumption, leading to the release of carbon dioxide emissions.
  7. According to the text, virtualization technologies reduce physical servers by allowing one virtual server to replace several real servers, thus reducing power consumption.
  8. It depends on one's perspective, telecommuting can reduce human travel thus reduce energy consumption and vulnerability to opportunities for crime and terrorism.
  9. Optimizing the use of existing infrastructure can support efforts to tackle climate change by making the efficient and effective use of ICT tools.
  10. It depends on whether the supplier agrees with the author's opinion about the environmental impact of IT operations and the importance of implementing solutions to reduce that impact.
  11. It depends on the reader's perspective, the text may have a significant impact on one's perspective about the role of IT in climate change and potential solutions.
  12. It depends on the reader, one may decide to use their computer more efficiently, reduce their energy consumption, and consider the environmental impact of their computer usage in their daily life.
