Cloud Computing is being used widely all over the world by many IT companies as it provides various benefits to the users like cost saving and ease of use. However, with the growing demands of users for computing services, cloud providers are encouraged to deploy large datacenters which consume very high amount of energy and also contribute to the increase in carbon dioxide emission in the environment. Therefore, we require to develop techniques which will help to get more environment friendly computing i.e. Green Cloud Computing. In this paper, we have reviewed the existing mechanisms and a new strategy to reduce the carbon dioxide emissions in federated Cloud ecosystems. More specifically, we propose a solution that allows providers to determine the best green destination to reduce the carbon dioxide emissions of the whole federated environment.
