Sign it Green.

You’re signing green when you sign documents online with DocuSign instead of printing, faxing, mailing, and using courier services. It’s a small thing, but it’s as good for the environment as turning off a light or using your own coffee mug. And it adds up.

 

Eco-challenge

We've passed 8 million signatures!

We’re challenging ourselves and our customers to save ten million sheets of paper by using the web to sign documents of all types electronically, without paper. Six million e-signatures delivered via DocuSign’s web-based service by Earth Day 2008 will make a real impact.

Every paperless e-signature has an environmental ripple effect. First there are the trees that won’t get cut down and can keep producing oxygen and absorbing CO2 greenhouse gas. Then there’s the prevention of pollution from paper manufacturing and the avoidance of resource use to transport trees and paper by truck or plane. And finally, secure online e-signing eliminates the need for additional planetary impact to print and overnight mail important documents.
