Review of Design-Oriented Green Information Systems Research

Green IS (GIS) research addresses environmental challenges brought on by climate change and the need to preserve natural environment. Within this scope, design-oriented research, most notably within Design Science Research (DSR) community, aims provide solutions these in form of novel artifacts. The resulting are valuable instruments for reducing emissions, increasing energy efficiency, mitigating waste. Over past 14 years, community was called upon multiple times focus designing suitable facilitating sustainability. However, it is unclear how calls action resonated community. Against background, we analyzed landscape GIS looking at 60 different studies that have designed evaluated an artifact. By analyzing publications, were able make six observations. Based observations, discuss can evolve live up expectations creating immediate positive impact.
