According to research Intergovermental Panel and Climate Change (IPCC), an international organization comprising more than 100 countries United Nations initiated in 2005 has been an increase in world temperature of about 0.6 to 0.7 degrees, while in Asia even higher, namely 10 degrees. This has resulted in melting of Gleser (Ice Mountain) in the Himalayas and the South Pole and reduced water availability in tropical regions as much as 20% to 30%. Gleser melting in the Himalayas and the South Pole itself directly impact on sea level rise as high as 4-6 meters. If this is allowed to continue then by 2012 the sea water will rise again around 7 meters. With so automatic ecosystems and livelihoods in coastal areas and islands will be threatened with extinction.
While changes in general perceived the world today is increasingly long summer and the shortening of the rainy season. This is of course very dangerous for the survival of the world at large.
Departure from these various fields of industrial concerns now would not want to think about this global warming handling steps. Starting from the reduction of gas emissions from industry and transport which has been blamed as one of the major contributors to global warming, to the creation of environmentally friendly technology for a variety of products ranging from transportation to various electronic equipment and environmentally friendly computers began to be made.
Information Technology industry, although not directly related to global warming as well as agriculture and environment, but should be able to bring the technology that supports the mitigation of global warming or global warming. This is because in various business fields that exist in today's world, information technology has become the backbone of the movement of existing industry. Starting from the machines in factories that use microcomputers to process computing in the office who also use computers. Indirectly the things mentioned above have shown that the field of IT has a lot of sucking the world's energy use at large,
