Sustainablilty in the tech sphere can also be described as Green IT and involves the use, distribution and creation of IT technology that has positive impacts on the environment. With close links to ESG, organisations need an informed strategy, engaged employees and positive leadership to achieve successful and sustainable outcomes.

Sustainable tech also involves reducing the negative impacts of manufacturing, use, and end-of-life handling, both of which relate to physical hardware and software.
