Seeking The "Green" In "Green Is": A Spirit, Practice And Impact Perspective

In the research on the intersection of Information Systems (IS) and eco-sustainability, various terms such as Green IT, Green ICT, Green IT/IS, Green IS and Sustainable IS are used. These conundrums of terms can lead to ambiguity and confusion in the theory and practice of Green IS. This conceptualization is captured in a framework, which is known as Green IS Lifecycle Framework (GISLF). This new Green IS conceptualization constitutes an original contribution to the information systems research in general and the Green IS sub-research in particular.
