Which of the following activities form part of a Green IT initiative?

Question

Options

• Ab and d only.
• Ba, b, c and d.
• Ca and d only.
• Da, b and c only.

• A
  2% (1)
• B
  8% (4)
• C
  2% (1)
• D
  88% (43)

Explanation

Note: The sub-items (a, b, c, d) are missing from the question as provided, so this explanation addresses the logical structure and general Green IT principles.

Option D ("a, b and c only") is correct because three of the four listed activities represent genuine Green IT practices - such as reducing energy consumption, virtualization, responsible e-waste disposal, or using renewable energy - while item d does not qualify as a Green IT activity (it likely describes something that increases environmental impact, such as frequent hardware replacement or non-optimized energy use).

The distractors fail because: Option B incorrectly includes item d, which undermines environmental goals; Option A drops items a and c while wrongly including d; Option C keeps item a but drops b and c, again incorrectly adding d - all three distractors share the error of either including d or excluding valid Green IT activities.

Memory tip: The key test for any Green IT activity is whether it reduces environmental impact (energy, waste, carbon). If an option includes an activity that increases resource consumption or waste, eliminate it - that's your "d" trap in this type of question.
