The Effect of Environmental Corporate Social Responsibility on Environmental Performance and Business Competitiveness: The Mediation of Green Information Technology Capital (2016, background): “ECSR is also viewed as environmentally friendly activities, which, apart from exceeding the requirements of environmental regulations, take responsibility also for the negative external effects of their operations (Lyon and Maxwell 2008; Portney 2008).”
