Virtually every organisation is under increasing pressure to demonstrate its 'green' credentials to customers - or risk losing trade if it fails to do so. But greener ways of working - reducing energy and materials usage, curbing of greenhouse gas and polluting emissions - are not just worth doing for ethical reasons alone; they also promote better operating efficiencies and help organisations comply and respond to regulatory threats, which is welcome news in difficult economic circumstances. - Green IT Architect - GREEN IT NETWORK - IT RESOURCE NETWORK << MORE >>

According to an EPA report issued in 2007, US data centers account for 1.5% of all electricity consumed and observers expect that figure to approach 3% by 2011. This understates IT's impact as these figures exclude devices, laptops, desktops, personal printers and the like which reside outside of the data center. The figures also exclude energy consumed in manufacturing IT equipment which is exceedingly high due to rapid product obsolescence. Estimates are that accounting for these factors, IT could consume as much as 5% of all electricity, which starts to exceed major appliances such as TV's. - Green IT Architect - GREEN IT NETWORK - IT RESOURCE NETWORK << MORE >>
