Each year, the world produces more than 300 million tons of paper and over 60% of the timber harvested worldwide each year is used for paper and paper products. It is a due responsibility of every individual to understand the disastrous negative effects the paper consumption has on our environment and take necessary steps that can help encouraging the world to use less of it.
Over the past few years telcos, banks and other large businesses have put forth their efforts to get their consumers to replace their paper bills with electronic bills and statements. A little lately but commendably even schools have joined the green revolution to save trees and planet Earth.
Advancements in technology over the past few years has made a significant development in the reduction of paper consumption around the globe. From filling up of enquiry or registration forms to educational textbooks and the examination papers, the educational stream is the one industry that uses up a significant amount of paper all over the world. Better late than never, even the education system should take steps to cultivate paperless management in schools, colleges and universities.
Going electronic is the amicable solution for an education system that facilitates in the paperless management. One might be wondering how beneficial it would be? Here’s the answer as the benefits are aplenty. When considering the cost saving and data management, educational industry for sure is going to reap benefits.
When it comes to administration, the school management has to maintain piles of papers and stacks of files that contain the numerous records of students, attendance, school finances and other information which is wearisome and time-consuming too. The paper management is often prone to data loss costing the sincere efforts, resources and time of the management.
The heap of such flaws needs serious consideration to be burnt and replaced by a management software that streamlines the administration process and operations of other departments of schools effortlessly.
