Is your company reducing energy consumption in its IT equipment and using technology to conserve energy and lower carbon emissions? Or do you know of a company that is a green IT innovator?
Computerworld is conducting a search for companies that are implementing smart, efficient strategies to achieve “green IT.” THEY ARE NOT looking for companies with general “green” policies and practices or vendors with green technology solutions — THEY ARE specifically looking for end-user companies that are employing green practices in IT.
For example, a company on their list might have: improved the energy efficiency of its data center; reduced the number of its servers through server virtualization technology; replaced older servers with more energy-efficient ones; created a program to recycle its used PC equipment; implemented a policy to encourage its employees to reduce travel through videoconferencing and telecommuting.
CW will feature a ranked list of the top 10 greenest IT end-user companies in their Feb. 18, 2008, issue.
Please forward this link to the person in your company best able to answer questions about IT energy issues.
Surveys should be submitted by Friday, Nov. 9, at 5 p.m. EDT. If you have any questions regarding this survey, or problems with it, please visit CW’s Web site for more information and an FAQ about this program.
