Quicker signifies a step towards more sustainable business practices and community involvement, ensuring that the ecological footprint of engagement processes is significantly reduced.
Stakeholder engagements and community consultations often involve substantial documentation, including reports, flyers, and feedback forms. The production of these materials can lead to significant paper use and waste, contributing to deforestation and landfill.
Energy ConsumptionThe printing process consumes energy, contributing to the overall carbon footprint of the engagement process.
Meetings, workshops, and field visits often require participants to travel, sometimes over long distances. This travel, especially when it involves air travel, can result in substantial carbon dioxide emissions.
Local PollutionLocal travel by car or public transportation also contributes to local air pollution and traffic congestion.
Workshops, meetings, and office operations for stakeholder engagements and community consultations consume electricity for lighting, heating, cooling, and electronic devices.
Source of ElectricityThe environmental impact of electricity consumption largely depends on how the electricity is generated. Electricity produced from fossil fuels has a much higher environmental impact compared to renewable sources.
The use of vehicles and generators for stakeholder engagement activities, especially in remote areas, leads to direct emissions of greenhouse gases and pollutants.
Resource ExtractionThe production and transportation of fuel also have environmental impacts, including habitat disruption and pollution from extraction and refining processes.
By offering a digital alternative, Quicker eliminates the need for physical travel, thereby drastically lowering the carbon footprint associated with stakeholder engagement and community consultations. This shift not only contributes to the reduction of greenhouse gases but also aligns with global efforts to combat climate change.
The transition to an online platform like Quicker fosters a more efficient and accessible consultation process. It allows for broader participation by removing geographical barriers, making it easier for individuals from diverse locations to contribute without the environmental cost of travel.
Quicker’s platform supports a model of more sustainable business practices, ensuring that the ecological footprint of our business and associated activities is significantly reduced.
