whitepaper Supporting a Company's Green Initiatives With Adobe Acrobat: Delivering Sustainable Returns to Organizations Looking to Minimize Their Environmental Footprint2009-03-01 Adobe Systems
  Three factors typically influence technology decisions in the public and private sector: costs savings, efficiency gains, and customer service improvements. Will a new software or hardware solution help employees work faster and smarter? Will it speed product time to market, make it easier for citizens to access government services, or enhance customer buying experiences? These are all valid considerations that motivate organizations as they look to adopt new technologies. Increasingly, another critical question is influencing corporate buying decisions - what is the environmental impact of a purchase and are there resulting "Green" benefits? Around the globe, a heightened focus on environmental concerns is prompting many organizations to consider the green benefits of the technologies they deploy.
