-
Descrição
-
Faced with a new business scenario, organizations need to share the understanding between
technological development and socio-environmental responsibility, since IT ally’s sustainability
and seeks community interaction with organizations, acting in an ecologically responsible
manner. In this context, green IT helps to reduce the environmental problems caused by the
disposal of technological equipment and incorrect use of technology. The methodology is a case
study with bibliographic research, direct observation and quantitative research. The company
studied has a high energy consumption due to the misuse of computer equipment and therefore,
with the applicability of Green IT is possible to visualize and measure the benefits for the
company, including not only the reduction of energy costs, but a sustainable education that favors
the company and society as a whole. The results showed savings in monthly energy costs, while
the reuse of paper reduces 50% of total paper consumption for document printing. So, it's
noticeable that with the implementation of Green IT practices, even if implemented in a small
business, if done in the long term, the benefits will be even greater and noticeable to the
corporation and society.
