IBM is the leading Green IT vendor and has been working on creating environmentally friendly hardware for more than 20 years now.

IBM's Project Big Green was established because they recognised very early that being environmentally friendly was also going to benefit their bottom line in terms of reduced costs in doing business, maintain healthier and happier employees, and retain customer loyalty through promotion of its corporate and social repsonsibility programs.

One could look at the green debate and state that it is a no brainer. Its good for business, good for people, and good for the surrounding environment - so why would you do it any other way?
