SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR MINIMIZING GREENHOUSE GAS EMISSIONS DUE TO EXECUTION OF VIDEOCONFERENCING SOFTWARE APPLICATIONS ON CLIENT INFORMATION HANDLING SYSTEMS ACROSS AN ENTERPRISE

A videoconferencing application carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions minimization system executing on a unified endpoint management platform information handling system may comprise a network interface device to receive operational telemetry measurements for a client information handling system, including power analytics, software application analytics, a geographic location, and a determined CO2 emissions value, a processor to determine a videoconferencing CO2 emissions value that exceeds a threshold value, based on the determined CO2 emissions value and power consumed during execution of a videoconferencing application at the client information handling system, the processor to identify a currently active, user-adjustable videoconferencing policy setting for the videoconferencing application, and the network interface device to transmit a recommended CO2 reduction instruction for display at the client information handling system to de-activate the user-adjustable videoconferencing policy setting to limit the videoconferencing CO2 emissions value to the CO2 emissions threshold value.
