- 7Tell them you write software that uses less electricity. All that greenwashing nonsense is just about PR. Just throw them a bone that they can feed to upper management and check the box.JohnFx– JohnFx2012-03-20 23:58:38 +00:00Commented Mar 20, 2012 at 23:58
- 1It's a test of how much you are willing to bend over backwards to "earn" their project. I would definitely stay away from that company, if I could afford to do so. This is a very bad sign of more nonsense coming your way, and I assume that you have a much better use for your time. For example, you could use that time to build web sites for clients who care about your abilities to build outstanding web sites, not b.s.-ing your way through their nonsense requirements.Sergey Kalinichenko– Sergey Kalinichenko2012-03-21 00:19:27 +00:00Commented Mar 21, 2012 at 0:19

How to Tag
A tag is a keyword or label that categorizes your question with other, similar questions. Choose one or more (up to 5) tags that will help answerers to find and interpret your question.
- complete the sentence: my question is about...
- use tags that describe things or concepts that are essential, not incidental to your question
- favor using existing popular tags
- read the descriptions that appear below the tag
If your question is primarily about a topic for which you can't find a tag:
- combine multiple words into single-words with hyphens (e.g. design-patterns), up to a maximum of 35 characters
- creating new tags is a privilege; if you can't yet create a tag you need, then post this question without it, then ask the community to create it for you
