Which of the following is one of the key outcomes of green IT?

Question

Options

• AEfficient energy consumption.
• BInnovative product development.
• CIncreased data centre capacity.
• DImproved network connectivity.

• A
  91% (20)
• B
  5% (1)
• C
  5% (1)

Explanation

Efficient energy consumption (A) is correct because Green IT is fundamentally about reducing the environmental impact of technology - its primary goal is minimizing energy use, carbon emissions, and electronic waste throughout the IT lifecycle.

B (Innovative product development) is wrong because innovation is a general business goal, not specific to Green IT - you can innovate with no environmental consideration at all. C (Increased data centre capacity) is the opposite of Green IT thinking; the movement aims to consolidate and reduce infrastructure footprint, not expand it. D (Improved network connectivity) is a general IT infrastructure goal with no inherent environmental dimension.

Memory tip: Think "Green = Lean" - Green IT is about doing more with less energy, not building more capacity or connectivity.
