Abstract
Information and communication technologies (ICTs) are quickly expanding and significantly impact all sectors, whether directly or indirectly. Globally, there is a positive attitude toward their expansion, as evidenced by Tanzania`s support for economic development innovation to achieve substantial results. ICTs are both allies and foes in terms of the environment. Concerns over this trend prompted national and international organizations to push the notion of green information and communication technologies. This attempts to improve ICT efficiency and effectiveness by reducing or eliminating negative environmental consequences. This study aimed to examine the Green ICT opportunities in the economic sector in Tanzania. The researcher applied a descriptive research design and a desktop review to gather the information.

Keywords
