AJT is Going Green!

AJT has joined up with our primary technology partner, Rackspace Managed Services (dubbed Greenspace) along with Native Energy to offer carbon neutral web hosting to all of our customers. For each server AJT has online, a (medium sized) tree has been planted and we utilize only the most energy efficient, low power consumption yet extremely powerful processors in all of our web servers. By doing so, we are essentially erasing the carbon footprint that we would otherwise be responsible for.

In addition to reducing our carbon footprint with eco-friendly web servers, AJT has also gone green with its invoicing by means of sending electronic invoices via e-mail rather than a hard copy being sent via snail-mail to customers that agreed. As of this posting, almost 3/4 of AJT's client base was on board for paperless billing which will save thousands of invoice envelopes, remittance envelopes, invoice paper, payment checks and stamps each year!

Earlier this year, AJT also "traded in" its company "runner" minivan which is used by the staff for running errands, picking up office supplies, going to meetings and tradeshows. We now have an eco-friendly company "runner" car that gets triple the miles per gallon of gas and is classed as "Ultra Low Emissions" vehicle. Some of the staff at AJT are also personally jumping on board, some already have traded in their "gas hogs" for more fuel efficient smaller cars and hybrids.

We owe our clients and friends a big thank you for helping us with our green initiative. To make a difference, we all must do our part, and it is extremely satisfying to see people really care and jump on board! So next time you are surfing your website that is hosted by AJT, remember that you are helping us to do our part in completely neutralizing the carbon emissions that would otherwise contribute to our global problem.
