Sustainable IT strategy: you won’t hit your net zero targets without one
ICT accounts for 4% of global greenhouse gas emissions. That’s doubled in the last decade – and it could reach 20% by 2030. It accounts for 35% of total emissions in communications, and 45% in insurance. And while it accounts for just 2% in retail, that’s still 25 megatonnes of CO2 emissions.
There’s not just an environmental cost. There’s a monetary one too. A fifth (21%) of global electricity consumption will go into making and running IT by 2030. So, a green IT strategy can reduce your spend.
But today, just 18% of large organisations have a comprehensive sustainable IT strategy. They’re often taking a piecemeal, scattergun approach.
Do you have a plan? We do – our Sustainable IT Framework.
