VerbalInk.com, one of the leading providers of transcription services in the industry, announced today that it will offset its electricity usage annually from 2009 onward, starting with a recent purchase of wind-generated renewable energy credits (RECs) from Renewable Choice Energy equaling 100 percent of the company’s 58 thousand kilowatt hours of electricity usage last year. The environmental impact of this commitment is similar to that of planting over 250 trees every year.
“In an era of climate change and energy sustainability concerns, our commitment to renewable energy projects reduces our environmental impact, promotes cleaner air, and reduces dependency on fossil fuels,” said JR Wurster, founder and CEO of Verbal Ink. “It also encourages the development of renewable energy companies here in the United States, ultimately leading to more jobs and innovation at home.”
As the recent tragedy in the Gulf has shown, conventional fossil fuel production has come with increasing environmental costs. President Barack Obama’s plan to promote alternative energy initiatives is hoped to spark new investments in clean technology that could conceivably reduce the burden borne by the environment.
“Our purchase of RECs from Renewable Choice Energy, a leader in renewable energy and other clean technology solutions, is a step in our ongoing efforts to improve the local areas we live, work, and play in, as well as doing our part to better conditions on a national level. We continue to look for opportunities and partnerships that embody this philosophy.”
Verbal Ink offers affordable transcription services for almost any audio format with voice to text transcription services for interviews, dictation, business meetings, conference calls, focus groups, press briefings, lectures, radio shows, panel discussions, and seminars as well as typewritten to text and handwritten to text transcription services.
