Linux is pretty green at least
Well I can argue with that because Linux systems usually consume more energy than identical systems with other operating systems though they are probably less green due to having a lot of cloud and ad related tech built in.
That's not ture atleast on my system, I played modded Minecraft for 4 hours on performance mode and I still have 15% to spare, I also watch BCS for an season and it's only drain 60% on power saving mode
Did you check the consumption on other operating systems?
I used win10 1 years and I don't remember exactly what the power consumption is like but I think it probably worse because of win10 use more on CPU and RAM for anti-malware and telemetry
