E-MailBuilding Sustainable IT
The use of IT has exploded in all areas of human activity, offering immense benefits and convenience -- and serious threats to the environment. IT infrastructure consumes significant amounts of electricity, placing a heavy burden on electric grids and contributing to greenhouse gas emissions. Furthermore, computers pose severe environmental problems both during manufacture and at disposal. Calls to address the issue are increasing; IT is part of the environmental problem and therefore must be part of the solution.
In this issue we explore the trend toward "green IT." Learn how to meet the seemingly conflicting demands of both energy efficiency and information security. Hear about software that can help you navigate the complex -- and growing -- thicket of environmental regulation. And learn how to implement a sustainable IT movement within your company that can increase operational efficiency, reduce costs, and provide real competitive advantage. Whether driven by rising energy costs, regulatory mandates, or genuine concern for the planet, a growing number of businesses are "going green." Tune in and discover how you can join them.
