There is more to saving the planet than simply going online

Greener ADR

Are you inadvertently increasing your carbon footprint by going online?

Recent predictions state that the energy consumption of data centres is set to account for 3.2 percent of the total worldwide carbon emissions by 2025 and they could consume no less than a fifth of global electricity. By 2040, storing digital data is set to create 14 percent of the world’s emissions, around the same proportion as the US does today*.

Co-founder of ODRPlat is a member of the Campaign for Greener Arbitrations Steering Committee. A study by the Committee found that a medium sized international arbitration generated enough carbon emissions to require 20,000 trees to be planted in carbon offset.

ODRPlat exclusively uses a UK carbon neutral data centre to host data and for messaging on our platform. Talk to us about reducing your carbon footprint.
