Paper abstract
Companies increasingly need to meet stringent environmental requirements. Relying on information technologies (IT) and information systems (IS) usage, and especially their inclusion in and for sustainability initiatives, can make a major contribution to meeting these requirements. In order to support managers’ efforts, literature was analyzed to identify Green IT and Green IS measures. These were then categorized by feasibility and ecological benefits. Many of these measures relate to the use and management of hardware, and are therefore categorized as Green IT. All the identified measures can and need to be seen as the first steps of a long-term sustainability strategy applied beyond the company boundaries. Owing to companies’ diversity, the presented results are nevertheless not universal, since an enterprise’s characteristics determine their adoption and usage.
The article will be published in Volume 58, Issue 1 in February 2021covering the "IT and Sustainability" topic.
