Green computing is a growing priority in the tech industry and has always been a focus for PC Corp. After all, Alberta is a beautiful place to live, with thousands of acres of forests. For over four decades, we have been spreading awareness about sustainable technology to our network and employees. Your business is capable of leaving a green footprint, and we can show you how!
PC Corp is a Canadian company, and we live and make our livelihood in a province filled with trees. In fact, 40% of Canada is covered with trees, and they are one of our most significant natural resources. But this resource is threatened annually by climate change, carbon emissions, and forest fires. We want to do our part and have made it a corporate responsibility to protect these trees, plant more of them, and help our clients offset their greenhouse gas emissions through green computing.
Our PC Corp Green Projects committee operates with the mindset that we are caretakers of this planet. They initiated our 1,000 Trees Initiative, setting us on a mission to plant at least 1,000 trees to support, maintain, and restore our forests. Every day, a portion of our sales go toward planting a tree. And we will continue this practice until we have planted 1,000 trees, and then we will plant 1,000 more! Since the start of our 1,000 Trees Initiative in 2022, we’ve planted 400+ trees!
Tree Canada is a national, non-profit organization working hard to take care of Canada’s tree canopy. They provide education about how to nurture trees, organize tree-planting events, and work with businesses and individuals alike to promote their goals nationwide. We’ve partnered with them to complete our 1,000 Trees Initiative.
How can you incorporate greener habits into your IT space? Green computing is the practice of replacing IT systems with environmentally-friendly and more sustainable options. Living in a digital-first world where information technology constantly expands and improves makes reducing energy consumption difficult. But there are some actions you can take to get started:
Green computing should be a significant focus for all businesses. Your company has the power to influence the tech market and encourage an increase in green manufacturing. You can use the strength of your budget and spend your money on green initiatives and sustainable technology, signaling to the world that you care about this planet. Our PC Corp Green Projects Committee endeavors to make a difference with our 1,000 Trees Initiative and share our green technology knowledge.
You can help us reach our goal of planting 1,000 trees in two ways. You can become or continue to be a PC Corp client. A portion of all our sales goes toward planting trees with Tree Canada. You can also donate directly through Tree Canada and help them plant and nurture trees across this beautiful country of ours.
