EDUCAUSE, an American association that promotes the intelligent use of ICT in higher education and of which we are an international member, has published useful information relating to sustainable and “green” IT practice in universities in the USA.
Visit EDUCAUSE’s Sustainable Campus and Green Computing pages for an overview of what’s available and consider joining the Sustainable IT Group listserv. Of value is a number of downloadable presentations from the EDUCAUSE 2008 conference published as How to go green: sustainable computing in Higher Ed.
