We investigate the empirical evidence that firms abate their pollution in response to green consumerism facilitated by dissemination of information through toxic release inventories. Lacking direct observational data on the extent of green consumerism, we construct an indirect method to elicit its effect on pollution abatement. Assuming that environmentally-motivated consumers cannot attribute ...

Using the natural resource based perspective (NRBV) as our theoretical lens, green IS is conceptualized as comprising different dimensions of sustainability practices that can create competitive advantage for the organization. This study examine (i) the impact of adoption of green IS on organizational performance; (ii) the impact of the extent of adoption of green IS on organizational performan...

Green software engineering is a main software engineering process in the 21st century. In the previous era, software engineers concerned mainly with development of hardware or software without giving more importance to sustainability. There is no effort towards the technical, economical, environmental, social and individual aspects of the sustainability of the environment. In developed countrie...

Both seem to be good arguments, although there are significant differences between them. In Argument I, the conclusion follows deductively from its premises. If the premises are true so must be the conclusion. Rules of logic justify inferring one from the other. Not so with Argument II. No matter how many emeralds are examined and found to be green, it does not follow logically that all are. Th...

The Green Wave Hypothesis posits that herbivore migration manifests in response to waves of spring green-up (i.e. green-wave surfing). Nonetheless, empirical support for the Green Wave Hypothesis is mixed, and a framework for understanding variation in surfing is lacking. In a population of migratory mule deer (Odocoileus hemionus), 31% surfed plant phenology in spring as well as a theoreticall...
