The Greening of University IT: From Environment to Economics

We know about going green: implementing environmental awareness programs, lowering carbon footprints, conserving water, and saving energy. We must now apply these principles to all of IT. In this session we will discuss what we have done at Stanford University to ensure environmental sustainability, from revisiting personal computing to promoting efficient research computing facilities. We will then explore how we are fundamentally changing our strategic business models to adapt to the evolving ecosystems of the 21st-century university.
