“…Environment sustainability has changed consumer preferences towards different products [7]. As in recent years, Information Technology (IT) has changed the way of interaction with each other and how mankind interacts with the environment [8], because IT worked in both ways i.e., enabler and barrier in the sustainable development programs [9]. That is why the relationship between environment and IT is complex due to its first and second order negative impact on the environment [10].…”

The Intention to Adopt Green IT Products in Pakistan: Driven by the Modified Theory of Consumption Values

Over the last decades, prompt economic growth and the resulting overconsumption has deteriorated the environment in an accelerated way. This environmental deterioration has prompted academicians and practitioners to study ecological consumption behavior. E-waste and energy consumption play a major part in this environmental deterioration, which makes consumer conscious regarding their consumption pattern. In this regard, the emergence of green Information Technology (IT) enables individuals to become involved in environmental protection and sustainability programs to reduce the negative impact of IT products on the environment. This study aims to investigate individual intentions to adopt green IT products in Pakistan by the theoretical foundation of the theory of consumption values (functional value, social value, epistemic value, emotional value, and conditional value). Whereas, an additional value, i.e., the religious value, is included in the model, due to its significant impact in green consumption behavior of individuals. Cross-sectional data is used to obtain a total of 536 valid questionnaires to test the hypothesis. The Partial Least Square Modeling approach is used to test the proposed model (variance-based SEM). The results infer that functional value, social value, epistemic value, emotional value, conditional value, and religious value have significant positive impact on the consumer intention to adopt green IT products. The reasons for the results and implications for the practitioners are discussed. Furthermore, directions for future research have also been suggested.

“…After conducting a series of validations with the first version of this framework (GMGIT 1.0) [11], we realized the need to develop a maturity model that would allow to perform the entire process of implementation, evaluation, and improvement of the Green IT practices defined in the GMGIT in a progressive and systematic manner. Thus, we developed a first approach through an ISO/IEC 15504-based maturity model for the GMGIT [13], [14]. After further validating and refining these proposals, we have obtained a second version of the framework, the GMGIT 2.0, as well as a maturity model updated to the new ISO/IEC 33000 family of standards [12], [15].…”

Sustainability is increasingly present in all areas of society and organizations. In Information Technology (IT), the idea of sustainability has come through the so-called Green IT practices. These practices are attracting many organizations that have realized the importance of this area and the benefits it generates socially, economically, and environmentally. However, there is a lack of standards and/or frameworks that help organizations to carry out these Green IT practices. For this reason, we have developed the ''Governance and Management Framework for Green IT'' and an ISO/IEC 33000-based maturity model for this framework, which allow to perform the implementation, evaluation, and improvement of Green IT in organizations in a systematic and progressive manner. In the present study we present an empirical validation through a case study that we have conducted with these proposals, emphasizing the application of ISO/IEC 33000 family of standards to Green IT. The results obtained in this case study demonstrate the importance of having a maturity model for Green IT and the validity and usefulness of the application of ISO/IEC 33000 to Green IT through the developed maturity model.

“…Therefore, green energy conservation emerges as the main theme of IT development since it reduces the negative impact of IT on the environment [2]. Green IT is defined as "the research and practice of design, construction and use of hardware, software and information technology with a positive impact on the environment" [3]. The application of green IT not only brings benefits to enterprises but also plays an important role in supporting environmentally sustainable growth [4,5].…”

Scholars have identified various factors for adopting green IT by organizations from different perspectives. However, the studies about the priority of those factors and the interdependent relations among them are relatively lack. To address this problem, we use the Motivation-Opportunity-Ability (MOA) framework to establish a systematic model of the factors which drive firms' green IT practices. Furthermore, an integrated Decision-Making Trial and Evaluation Laboratory (DEMATEL) and Analytic Network Process (ANP) approach has been adopted to analyze the complex relations among different factors and determine the weight distribution of them. The results show that top managers supports, policy and regulation, institutional pressure and human resources are key factors driving firms' green IT practices. This study provides the implications for organizations and policy makers to understand and develop strategies to implement green IT. IntroductionInformation technology (IT) is the cornerstone for the development of modern society. The dependence of various industries on IT is rising [1]. But at the same time, the energy consumption, carbon dioxide emissions and increased e-waste brought about by IT cause great anxiety. Therefore, green energy conservation emerges as the main theme of IT development since it reduces the negative impact of IT on the environment [2]. Green IT is defined as "the research and practice of design, construction and use of hardware, software and information technology with a positive impact on the environment" [3]. The application of green IT not only brings benefits to enterprises but also plays an important role in supporting environmentally sustainable growth [4,5]. The term "Green IT" has become more and more popular and the number of related studies increases rapidly [6].However, there are still several gaps between the research and practice of green IT [1]. As a young field, a unified comprehensive framework for green IT is lacked [3] which causes each firm has its own criteria about implementing green IT [5]. Furthermore, there are few studies focusing on the relations and the quantitative evaluation of those driving factors. Through addressing the question, our study contributes to green IT from two aspects. Theoretically, this paper develops the Motivation-Opportunity-Ability (MOA) framework to establish a new systematic model of the factors which drive green IT practices. Empirically, on the basis of the model, we analyze the relations among those factors and identify the key factors by using an integrated Decision-Making Trial and Evaluation Laboratory (DEMATEL) and Analytic Network Process (ANP) approach.The remainder of the paper is divided into four sections. Section 2 establishes the systematic model based on literature review. Section 3 introduces the methodology, data collection and analysis procedure. Section 4 explains the relations among various factors and discusses the analysis results. In section 5, the conclusions and limitations of the article are presented. Theoretic...
