First is “Green Design Hits The Prime Time,” such as Apple’s “Greenest Notebook” new Macbook. Next is “Dealing With The E-Waste Problem,” which resulted in calling out the EPA in September for essentially doing nothing to help curb the massive e-waste being produced. After that is “Energy Management,” which was huge for a business like Symantec, who found a way to save $800,000 a year by automatically shutting off unused computers and electronics.

All of these advances combined show that IT is the solution to many environmental problems, and in that case, we have a bright future!
