Greening IT: How Greener IT Can Form a Solid Foundation For a Low Carbon Society

---

This book started out as two people’s commitment to save the planet, and one guy crazy enough to suggest that a book was the way to do it. All three of us can now call ourselves the editors of this exciting, internationally collaborative, and non-profit (Creative Commons licensed) project. Allow us to introduce ourselves: Irene & Adrian Sobotta and John Gøtze.

Personally committed to contribute to solving human’s impact on global warming, Irene and Adrian wanted to apply their professional fields of Environmental Politics and Information Technology to increase awareness of Green IT solutions. Using John’s knowledge and experience in collaborative book writing, the Greening IT project was born. Our common underlying assumption is that there is something wrong with the world today! We perceive Climate Change and Global Warming as the effects of unsustainable consumption patterns in an industrialized world. In an effort to contribute to solving the problem, we look into the great potential of Information Technology (IT).

The overall goal is to communicate to a large audience how IT can be leveraged to transform today’s society into one characterized by low emissions of greenhouse gases.
