‘Invest In Our Planet’ by Embracing E-signatures! | DrySign by Exela


 4.543 billion years! Earth has been around for over these many years, and we have managed to cause an unprecedented level of damage to the environment in a mere century. With rampant exploitation of natural resources, production of too much waste, and air and water pollution, we are steadily reaching the point where there is no return, unknowingly leading the path to the final destruction of our home planet. Almost every day, another research finding, news story, or environmental-related disaster piles more evidence on the reality that our planet is in crisis. It is a well-known yet disturbing fact that needs to be acknowledged on an immediate basis. All of us, on an individual basis, try to do our bit for the planet, whether it is recycling waste, reducing the use of plastic, etc. But the businesses out there impact our environment the most. The paper usage numbers today are staggering. According to Statista, the global paper consumption was 399 million metric tons in 2020, which is foreseen to increase steadily over the next decade to over 461 million metric tons in 2030. A report says 70% of the total waste in offices comprises paper. If every organization decided to go paperless, a significant amount of damage caused to the earth could be recovered. If your organization is looking to contribute to reducing the damage, make a simple change; ditch paper and go digital!

With Earth Day around the corner, several businesses are trying to be more sustainable with more environment-friendly options and reduced paper consumption. The year 2022 commemorates the 52nd anniversary of Earth Day. Every year on April 22, people around the globe mobilize to address some of the most urgent threats concerning our environment, such as climate change, deforestation, plastic pollution, and many more. This is the time to drive a change to preserve and protect our planet. Following this year’s Earth Day theme, we must #InvestInOurPlanet! Dive into this blog to discover the alarming facts about our environment and ways we could contribute to Earth Day this year.

Go green!

Organizations are increasingly embracing digital solutions to combat the effects of current and future challenges. As businesses play a significant role in producing paper waste, there is undoubtedly a need to adopt digitization. One of the most compelling and convenient ways to reduce this paper waste is to digitize document signing. Digital signatures or electronic signatures not only allow remote signing, but also facilitate a greater impact on our environment. Incorporating e-signatures in your business operations helps our planet in the following ways:

The U.S. is the second-largest paper-producing country in the world. Moreover, it is the world’s largest consumer of paper! According to a survey, pulp and paper are the third-largest air, water, and land polluters among all industries in the U.S. The paper and pulp industry that makes products such as tissue, office and catalog paper, glossy paper, and paper-based packaging uses around 33-40% of all industrial wood traded globally. Moreover, Americans use about 31.5 million tons of printing and writing paper each year, equal to 660 pounds per person. It requires 535 million trees and 12 billion gallons of oil to be processed.
