IT Sustainability is a strategic framework in which information technology resources are managed and utilized in a way that harmonizes the technological needs of an organization with minimized environmental repercussions. It implies conscientious deployment and evolution of IT assets, resources, and processes to fulfill current and future technological requirements while simultaneously making positive contributions to economic, social, and environmental aspects.
Embedding principles of the circular economy, it also involves implementing practices that prioritize resource efficiency, prolonging asset life cycles, and encouraging the reuse, refurbishment, and recycling of IT components to reduce waste and minimize environmental impact, ensuring a robust, resilient, and sustainable IT ecosystem.
Sustainability is no longer just an IT buzzword, it consists of environmentally-conscious principles businesses must adopt to make a lasting, positive impact on people, the planet and business performance. At ServerMonkey, we consistently challenge ourselves to embrace sustainability principles while embedding them into every aspect of our operations, engagements with customers and future business decisions.
E-waste is the fastest-growing waste stream on the planet, with a 3-5% annual growth rate. Roughly 60 million metric tons of e-waste was generated in 2022 alone, while only 17.4% of e-waste gets collected and correctly recycled yearly. Responsibly recycling electronics in the circular economy via IT Asset Disposition (ITAD) has significant long-term benefits–environmentally and financially.
ServerMonkey’s secure ITAD services enable its customers and partners to become immediate participants in the growing circular economy. How can ServerMonkey help you meet your ESG goals and make environmentally-conscious information management possible?
