"We have successfully launched our 'Digital Over Paper' campaign!"

2023-04-26

Globally, 190 tons of paper are produced every single minute, and manufacturing just 1 ton of paper requires cutting down 24 trees that took 15 to 60 years to grow. Alarmingly, an equivalent amount of paper turns into waste through just one day of consumption in Ulaanbaatar.

The United Nations has warned that our country is among those most heavily affected by climate change. This is directly linked to the excessive deforesting of our woodlands—which play a vital role in maintaining ecological balance—only to turn them into vast amounts of wasteful trash.

In response, our organization launched the "Digital Over Paper" campaign. As part of this initiative, we announced a project proposal competition and have begun implementing the winning idea into our daily operations. The selected project, "Paperless Friday," encourages everyone to avoid printing on paper every Friday while maintaining seamless business operations through digital solutions. This practice is now being successfully implemented at "Khan Khogshin International" LLC and its subsidiary companies.

Furthermore, we are actively adopting the following practices in our daily operations:

  • Double-sided printing: Fully utilizing both sides of the paper before disposing of it.

  • Going digital first: Storing documents, handbooks, and instructions digitally on our cloud and internal network, avoiding printing unless absolutely necessary.

  • Reviewing before printing: Double-checking documents thoroughly before hitting print to avoid errors and reprints.

  • Selective printing: Printing only the specific, necessary pages rather than entire multi-page files.

  • Digital communication: Sharing updates via digital notice boards or emails, rather than handing out printed copies to every individual.

By following these guidelines, we are contributing to the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), specifically focusing on "Climate Action" and "Life on Land."

We warmly invite all organizations and individuals to adopt these green habits into your daily routines as well.
