15. An enterprise-wide carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions minimizing load-balancing system executing on a unified endpoint management (UEM) platform information handling system comprising:
a network interface device to receive operational telemetry measurements for a first client information handling system over a CO2 monitoring period, including power analytics, a load of remote processing calls made to a hardware processor, a geographic location, and a first client CO2 emissions value determined for the first client information handling system;
the hardware processor executing code instructions of the enterprise-wide CO2 emissions minimizing load-balancing system to determine, for the first client information handling system and each of a plurality of candidate offload client information handling systems, a CO2 load-balancing emissions threshold value based on average first client and candidate client CO2 emissions values determined over a training period preceding the CO2 monitoring period;
the hardware processor executing code instructions of the enterprise-wide CO2 emissions minimizing load-balancing system to determine when the first client CO2 emissions value exceeds a first CO2 load-balancing emissions threshold value determined for the first client information handling system; and
the hardware processor executing code instructions of the enterprise-wide CO2 emissions minimizing load-balancing system to reject remote processing call requests made to the first client information handling system above a CO2 optimal request load determined for the first client information handling system to limit the first client CO2 emissions value based on CO2 emitted per remote processing call request processed at the first client information handling system during the CO2 monitoring period; and
the hardware processor to redistribute the rejected remote processing call requests across the plurality of candidate offload client information handling systems that have a candidate client CO2 emissions value below a per-machine CO2 load-balancing emissions threshold value that limits the capacity of call request redistribution to each of the plurality of candidate offload client information handling systems.
