Green ICT & Energy: From Smart to Wise Strategies

This book illustrates the connection between the growing body of literature on sustainability and the topics of energy and ICT. It integrates two seemingly incompatible approaches to sustainability: efficiency and effectiveness. The book builds on the efficiency initiatives already taken by industry, but it is not a "how-to-do-it manual". It offers insight in state of the art approaches to green IT and greening by IT. Attention to important stakeholders outside the sector, e.g. policy makers and the field of education, makes this book comprehensive.
