Over recent years, green communication technology has been emerged as an important area of concern for communication research and industrial community. The reason of paying attention of this area is its effect on reducing environmental pollutions. According to recent research, a significant share of these pollutions is produced by the local area computer networks. A mobile ad-hoc network (MANET) is one of the widely used local area networks. The energy efficiency is important in MANETs not only from the green communication point of view, but also due to the network limitations in terms of battery lifetime. Of course, MANETs characterization such as distributed nature and lack of administration, nodes mobility, frequent topology changes and scare resources makes the greening trend a challenging task in such a context. In this paper, we propose and implement a green routing protocol for MANET which solves the idle energy consumption by allowing the necessary nodes and switching off the other un-utilized nodes. Simulation results show this can help to the 20 percentage of saving energy in the environment on average and also aware of the quality of service.
