Often, the lowest-priced equipment is so energy-inefficient that its initial advantage is negated during its first year of operation; while only slightly higher outlays will result in substantial savings very soon and for years to come.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSecond, your company needs to examine the specific equipment it has and the specific tasks for which it is used. Are your servers bigger than you need; your backups overly redundant; your work­stations, printers, scanners, copiers, and other items left on overnight and over the weekend?\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThird, think long term. Disposal may seem like an issue for down the road but getting rid of old equipment can be a costly endeavor. You don't want to have to pay hefty waste-processing fees, fines, or indefinite warehousing costs. And if you've bought quality equipment in the first place, you'll find many opportunities to sell or donate it when you've outgrown it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA book not just for IT buyers but for anyone in business, from the C-suite to purchasing to public relations, \u003cem\u003eGreen Tech\u003c\/em\u003e offers practical ways to: \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEncourage sensible power usage by bridging the gap between the people using the electricity and the people paying the bills\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBuild the business case for adopting and executing green technology strategies across the entire organization\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReduce energy and equipment costs without sacrificing customer service levels\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIdentify old equipment and cost-effective, energy-smart replacements\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRight-size your equipment for the tasks at hand, including reducing or virtualizing servers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCool your data centers for a fraction of the cost you're paying now\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConduct an energy audit and establish your company's energy baseline\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRecycle or donate old equipment responsibly\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eOne at a time or in combination, each idea in this book will have a noticeable impact on your bottom line--and on the world around you.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 304\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.76 x 9 x 6 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e September 06, 2022\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48336436265209,"sku":"9781400232550","price":23.02,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0789\/2782\/3097\/files\/KONrloUh2p9781400232550.webp?v=1777528536","url":"https:\/\/bookscloud.io\/products\/green-tech-how-to-plan-and-implement-sustainable-it-solutions-paperback","provider":"BooksCloud Book Dropshipping","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
