Broadcore Goes Green and Helps Businesses Help the Environment
Broadcore has empowered businesses to Go Green by reducing employee commutes, thereby saving time, money and reducing emissions.
According to figures released by the EPA and numerous environmental groups, automobiles release from 0.66 to 1.20 pounds of pollutants per mile driven. Carbon Dioxide, Carbon Monoxide, Nitrogen Oxide and Hydrocarbon pollutants are released into the air and adversely affect the air quality, pollute the environment in general and greatly contribute to the global warming problem. In Southern California, an average driver drives approximately 1000-1500 miles per month, most of which is to commute to and from work. This activity causes the release of anywhere between 660 to 1800 pounds of pollutants into the air, per car, per month! A small business can have a significant impact on emissions reduction by allowing employees to work from home either on a fulltime basis or a few days a week.
How do Broadcore and its customers help the environment?
- By having our entire Broadcore platform and infrastructure ‘energy-efficient’ and using ‘Green’ servers and components wherever available on the network
- By requiring our own Broadcore staff to work from home either fulltime or a few days a week
- By providing services and technologies that substantially reduce the need for technician site visits, thereby reducing driving and emissions
- By using paperless Electronic Billing
- By eliminating or substantially reducing the need for a company’s staff to commute to work, thereby further reducing traffic and emissions
- By eliminating in-house phone system equipment and thus, obsolescence / replacement every few years, thereby reducing the amount of old metal and hazardous electronic components in landfills here and abroad.
Broadcore has long been providing services that would enable employees to work remotely. Broadcore’s Managed Business Communications Services allow employees to work from home or smaller, more convenient, local branch offices, using a broadband connection, as opposed to driving to a central office location on a daily basis. Through Broadcore’s services, many businesses have enjoyed the benefits of a distributed work force-- improved quality of life, improved efficiency, improved morale… Employees have also benefited from savings on ever-increasing gas and other auto related costs. Most importantly, everyone contributes to the reduction in traffic and the inherent problems and costs, pollutant emissions, and the overall improvement to our quality of life.
