The aim of this project is to evaluate sustainable or "green" technologies to determine both their financial and environmental value to small businesses, and to determine best practices. This project focuses on the current state of the best practices as it relates to green IT. This information was developed based on the current literature as well as interviews with local IT professionals. Following this understanding of best practices, a local telecommunications company was ‘audited’ and a summary of recommendations were developed. Inferences, implications and results are presented and discussed.
