Protect the Environment and Save the Planet One Electronic Contract at the Time

Here at Realty45 Inc, we are aware that, aside from its inconvenience and the significant cost increases it causes for end users, the use of paper in itself is a major threat to the environment. As such, we have chosen a secure, convenient, and – best of all – clean portable solution for all your documents.

The Negative Impact of Paper and Ink

Using both paper and ink for managing documents is rapidly leading to environmental problems of unexpected proportions. Consider the following details and statistics:

• Paper production leads to thousands of oxygen-producing trees being cut down and harmful gases being released into the atmosphere during the production process.
• Excessive fuel consumption is required in each case when paper is distributed, either by air, road or courier services, to its intended destinations.
• It’s also worth mentioning the paper industry is the second largest electricity consumer in the US.
• Estimates show that paper demand has tripled in the past 4 decades and landfills gather almost 200 million tons of waste from used paper and toner cartridges.
• Even a common office worker in the US prints more than 10,000 pages each year.

The impact of just 10 million pages can rapidly cause a serious environmental impact, leading to more than 2,000 trees being cut down, hundreds of cubic yards of landfill being used and power requirements of thousands of kilowatts.

A Cleaner and Greener Approach

As many still believe legal documents require wet ink to be seen as genuine, some brokerages need to print out thousands of pages just because of a small signature. Fortunately, e-Signature solutions are rapidly replacing these practices.

At Realty45 Inc, apart from our unlimited paperless storage option that make it possible to avoid using paper for document storage and management, we also provide one of the most convenient and easy to use portable e-Signature solutions available, to prevent any impact on the environment through the use of printing paper.

Numbers don’t lie. The environmental threat is real, and upgrading to a more efficient, secure and eco-friendly document management solution is the best way to counter it. Contact us now to find out more about our green real estate business practice!
