# Introduction

| Life is the first gift, love is the second, and understanding is the third.
| Marge Piercy

Though computers can be seen as part of environmental pollution, there are also ways to use computers in a more reasonable manner to help protect the environment. So I have just started to collect some means to do so with Linux.

# Objectives

Some objectives of the HOWTO:

- Reduction in power consumption.

- Reduction in consumables like paper and inks.

- Reduction in waste by reusing older components or keeping them in service longer.

- Reduction in toxic waste such as used batteries.

- Use of Linux in environmental education and research.
