The Role of Consumers, Producers, and Regulatory Authorities in the Evolution of Green ICTs

Abstract:

The evolution of the information and communication technologies (ICTs) and the increase of the role given to environment in society have led to the widening of the green ICT concept. The way in which they can contribute to the improvement of life conditions, as related to the ecosystem, depends only on the interest and involvement of people, companies and state, directly or indirectly, influenced on their turn by the living standards, education and others. This paper aims to identify the way in which producers, consumers and regulatory authorities can contribute to the promotion and implementation of the green ICT concept, as well as its main influences on the environment and the society.
