2.What responsibility does an organization have to ensure that its suppliers and business partners behave ethically?
Answer:
There is no longer one agreed moral code. Most people have a weak sense of religion or none at all. So their morals must come from somewhere else.

Chapter 10 - Case Study 3: Manufacturers Compete on Green Computing
1. How have green computing efforts lowered the total cost of computer ownership?
Answer:
As a result of green computing efforts, the Total Cost of Ownership
(TCO) of servers and computer systems has decreased significantly over
time. [ Each of green computing 93%+ efficient systems, comparing to
others equipped with traditional 70% to 80% efficient power supplies,
can save up to $200 to $500 per year depending on configuration and
usage. Alternatively, this savings can provide a reduction of more than
half a metric ton of carbon dioxide emissions from the generation of
electric power from fossil fuels.
As an example, each node of Supermicro's SuperBlade? can save up to 100
watts over a traditional discrete 1U rack-mount server. These savings
add up quickly when a SuperBlade chassis is fully populated with 10
servers. By eliminating the overhead in 1U discrete servers and using
high-efficiency (up to 93%) power supplies, the SuperBlade? can save
customers between $700 and $1,000 per year in power - even more when
lower cooling costs are included. And the carbon dioxide emissions are
reduced by more than 5.5 metric tons - the equivalent to planting 1.7
acres of trees. ]Reference: http://www.weegy.com/?ConversationId=9E58ADE5
2. Which approach can yield greater benefits—building greener
computers or implementing programs that change users’ behavior so that
they operate their computers in a more responsible manner? Explain your
response.
Answer:
For me, implementing programs that change users' behavior so that they can operate computers more responsible in a manner way because they are lot of programs helping others to be more responsible.
3.Do research at the EPEAT Web site and determine which computer manufacturer currently has the best green computing ratings.
Answer:
Yes, the study and practice of designing, manufacturing, using, and disposing of computers, servers, and associated subsystems—such as monitors, printers, storage devices, and networking and communications systems — efficiently and effectively with minimal or no impact on the environment.
