11. • Make decisions based solely on green initiatives—without considering the impact on other areas of business • Respond to requests from regulators with inefficient, manually gathered data • Seek out quick-fix solutions that treat sustainability as a one-time exercise—and put their companies at risk of greenwashing • Fail to connect sustainability strategies between IT and business, leading to poorly executed projects Silos create problems
12. But, there are more challenges Cost Much of the technology associated with green living does provide benefits to the environment but often at a much higher cost than their traditional counterparts. Energy-efficient appliances are designed to use less electricity and water but they often come with a high price tag. The use of data centres established in cold places like North Pole region also causes in unnecessary cost due to high maintenance and high quality and high cost equipment. Payback period The time factor is also an issue in terms of the payback rate of certain green living investments. For example, replacing regular light bulbs with compact fluorescent light bulbs (CFLs) can help the environment and save money, but it typically takes about four months for them to pay back the difference in their cost. Also for producing green IT products takes more cost while it unable to use for a long time. Rapid technology change With the rapid change in technology, world is innovating more consumer efficient product day by day. Because of that whether the product is sufficient with the need; consumers are willing to buy the same product with new features. So it causes in dump the previous version. It also affect in the green IT concept. People are inventing new environmental friendly IT product, but with the rapid technology change the product are not in use at the end. It increases the cost and wastage
