This document presents the contributions of the information systems (IS) community towards fostering environmental sustainability. It explores various research directions, such as understanding values that influence the use of IS for sustainability, effective design approaches for systems, and the relationship between IS and organizational performance. New business models like cloud computing are examined for their efficiency and environmental impact. Additionally, multi-level models and metrics for enterprise-wide sustainability initiatives are discussed.

  5. Research Directions • Context: • How do the distinctive characteristics of the environmental sustainability context, such as values and altruism, affect intention to use and usage of information systems for environmental sustainability? • Design: • What design approaches are effective for developing information systems that influence human actions about the natural environment. • Causality: • What is the association between information systems and organizational and sustainability performance? • New Business Models (e.g. Cloud Computing): • What is the association between IS and Cloud Computing from an efficiency and environmental perspective? • 5. Systems Approaches: • How can systems approaches shed light on organizational and environmental outcomes that result from the use of IS for environmental sustainability? • 6. Models/Metrics: • Multi-Level models and metrics that encompass enterprise-wide sustainability initiatives. Melville, N. MIS Quarterly Vol. 34 No. 1, pp. 1-21/March 2010
