The term paperless was first introduced in a 1975 Newsweek article called “The Office Of The Future” published June 30, 1975 which touted the concept of a fully automated office without paper. It seems that instead of eliminating paper we actually have more of it. The promise of a paperless office has only been partially realized and much more can be done to fully do away with paper right now.

In many ways, we already are paperless. Computer products like Microsoft Outlook and CRMs like Salesforce.com have replaced paper methods once used to store names and phone numbers. We now use word processors and spreadsheets to share information instead of typing or handwriting documents and charts. Our world is changing to become more and more efficient.

This white paper discusses the concepts and methods for achieving a paperless office by automating and eliminating paper forms and applications from the processes that currently require such documents to be completed. This is the last step that companies and businesses take to become completely paperless.

There's a green business on the block making waves and depending on the guest(s), the establishment promises a fun-filled family excursion or relaxing vacation getaway. Wilderness at the Smokies (located in Sevierville, Tennessee) offers a mixture of upscale amenities and rustic mountain charm nestled in a luxurious setting. As travelers come from near and wide to visit the resort, I'm wondering just how many people know about the waterland's commitment to preserving the environment and providing a more earth-friendly experience.

Summertime is upon us full-force and 4th of July celebrations are just around the corner - it's time for backyard barbecues but the traditional cookout is not so eco-friendly. In fact, the estimated 60 million cookouts that will take place this weekend will "consume enough energy to power 20,000 households for a year" according to the Sierra Club.
