Digital sustainability: Principles and practices (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798187768479)

Digital Sustainability: Principles and Practices explores how digital professionals can work with technology in ways that support a more sustainable future.

The book introduces the foundations of digital sustainability and explains the environmental, economic, and societal impacts of IT. These impacts are no longer secondary. They are becoming central to how technology is developed and used.

It then turns to hardware and infrastructure. Today's systems are often inherently unsustainable, and the book examines why that is the case while pointing toward more responsible alternatives.

From there, the focus shifts to practice. Readers are presented with concrete methods, tools, and frameworks that support the transition toward greener digital solutions and evolving standards.

The scope is then broadened to include the social dimensions of digitalization. Questions of well-being, user experience, and the wider human consequences of digital systems are brought into focus.

Sustainability is woven into the practice of IT, influencing everyday decisions and shaping the society of tomorrow. This book invites you to explore how.
