Title: Unraveling Green Information Technology Systems as a Global Greenhouse Gas Emission Game-Changer
Green information technology systems (Green ITS) are proposed as a strategy to reduce greenhouse gases (GHGs) emissions and other environmental impacts while supporting ecological sustainable development. The Green ITS concept combines both Green information technology (IT) and Green information system (IS) applications
