Environmental Impacts of Digital Signature 

December 07, 2022

Paper Is Costing Us the Earth

Integrating the digital signature is one of the answers to businesses and industries worldwide for the impact of paper usage in the industry.

From start to finish, the lifecycle of paper is damaging. It begins by cutting trees for raw materials, resulting in the widespread destruction of our forests which is a major contributing factor to climate change. The end of it is that when the paper is at the final stages of its lifeline, it is disposed of on a large scale by burning it, leaving vast amounts of carbon emissions resulting in air pollution.

 

Paper By the Numbers

If viewed by the numbers, paper is the 5th largest energy consumer. A production size of one ton of non-recycled paper requires 1,440 liters (about 380.41 gals) of oil, 2.3 cubic meters of landfill space, 4,000 kilowatts of energy, and 26,500 liters (about the volume of a large U-Haul truck) of water. This volume of material used makes you think about how it is in reality.

These figures are a sobering pill to the mind and an indication of new and innovative ways of lessening excessive paper use like the digital signature. 

 

The lesser The Paper, the Greener the World Is

Forests are a depleting source of life here on earth; Paper is nowhere near beneficial to it. Primary forests are getting bald, losing their stability to sustain themselves, affecting communities worldwide. Communities that these companies and industries serve mutually. A two-way street to go down in this call for lessening paper usage and promoting technologies like a digital signature.
