Business travel by air or car has environmental impact, releasing CO2 (aka carbon emissions) into the atmosphere—not to mention the productivity waste and hard travel costs. Many companies, schools and government agencies have instituted green initiatives that include reduced travel policies and mandatory telework. But accurate tracking of such programs has proven to be difficult.
The iLinc Green Meter—the only tool of its kind—is an automatic calculator inside iLinc web conferencing software that tracks CO2, cost and travel reductions accrued by meeting online rather than traveling. Now, you have the flexibility to measure the metrics that you care about.
How does it work?
The patent-pending technology of the iLinc Green Meter makes calculations based on each web conferencing participant's location and the standard emission rates for cars or planes. Not only can an individual see his or her immediate impact on the environment, a team can tally its total, as can an entire organization. In fact, iLinc's customers will save two billion pounds of carbon emissions from harming the environment so far. As more and more customers use the iLinc Green Meter, the savings will only grow.
