Not to mention the difference when comparing it with sending the brochure in the post, you will be saving 139.9g co2e.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Your business could also decide to send out <a href=\"https:\/\/www.firetext.co.uk\/sms-marketing-features\/schedule-messages\" data-type=\"URL\" data-id=\"https:\/\/www.firetext.co.uk\/sms-marketing-features\/schedule-messages\">text message reminders and confirmations<\/a> instead of making a phone call. Not only will this save time for your team, but it will also save 56.9g co2e.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As a retailer instead of sending out a tweet or an email campaign when you have a sale, you could send out a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.firetext.co.uk\/\" data-type=\"URL\" data-id=\"https:\/\/www.firetext.co.uk\/\">text marketing campaign<\/a>. As well as being a more instant and direct form of communication, you are also reducing your carbon footprint, simply by changing your communication channel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Check out this infographic we&#8217;ve put together for you&#8230;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image is-style-default\"><figure class=\"aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.firetext.co.uk\/images\/infographic\/firetext-co2-impact.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.firetext.co.uk\/images\/infographic\/firetext-co2-impact.jpg\" alt=\"The carbon footprint of communication\"\/><\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><em>(click image to enlarge)<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Have you ever wondered how everyday communication impacts your carbon footprint?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":428,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[26],"class_list":["post-414","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-firetext","tag-the-impact-of-communication"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v24.6 -
