 * Green IS Tutorial **

//Organizations increasingly recognize that environmental sustainability is an// //urgent problem. Information systems are meant to be a key resource in// //assisting individuals, organizations, governments, and societies to become// //more environmentally sustainable. But as technological artefacts, information// //systems are also contributing to environmental degradation. This dialectic// //signifies some of the complexities surrounding the development and use of// //information systems for environmental sustainability, which has led to the// //inception of the Green IS research theme in the IS discipline. Researchers in// //Green IS have started to systematically explore the role that information// //systems might play but the knowledge to date remains emergent and nascent.// //This tutorial will introduce Green IS as the research stream concerned with the// //development and use of information systems for environmental sustainability.// //We will explore the relevance and characteristics of environmental// //sustainability, the current state of knowledge in Green IS and open research// //questions and approaches.//
