We all want to do ‘our bit’ to save the planet for future generations and it just so happens that us Virtual Assistants have been living up to these terms for years!
If you already live an environmentally responsible lifestyle or want to start, then working with a Virtual Assistant (VA) can help incorporate these values into your day-to-day business dealings.
“Never doubt that a small group of thoughtfully committed citizens can change the world. Indeed, it’s the only thing that ever has.”
– Margaret Mead
Here are some examples of why we think so:
- Working with a VA you don’t need to provide an office. Not only does this save you money, not having to furnish and provide utilities also saves the use of fossil fuels and minimises your carbon footprint! Plus, we generally get the work done in at least half the time of an office-based employee.
- VA’s do not need to travel to work as they generally work from home. So that’s one less car on the road on a daily basis, cutting down on fuel consumption and vehicle exhaust pollution.
- By the very nature of our business, we are ‘virtual’ and therefore typically use less paper – if any at all. The majority of our work is done via the internet and all files are transferred and stored electronically. Printed copies are only needed at client’s request, if absolutely necessary.
“One person can make all the difference in the world. For the first time in recorded human history, we have the fate of the whole planet in our hands.”
– Chrissie Hynde
As you can see, we’re not only saving you money but more importantly, helping the environment as we do so. We can all do our bit however big or small, plant a tree, recycle or use our services!
