Hello, my name is Nick Harris and I am the Environmental Specialist at Advanced Data Exchange (ADX) - an E-Commerce service provider for thousands of companies across dozens of industries. I am here to announce the Earth Day 2008 launch of the Cleaner Commerce campaign!

Sponsored by ADX, the campaign’s goal is to reduce the environmental impacts of commerce, starting with paper. ADX offers services that help companies go paper-free, so sponsoring Cleaner Commerce is a “win-win” for our company: good for business and good for the environment.

I am passionate about connecting businesses with efficient solutions, and a major step most can make today is to use less paper! Sure, there are myriad other steps that can be taken too, but paper reduction is a simple step in the right direction that will help guide companies down a more efficient path. I think Earth Day is a great time to think about how we can use our resources more wisely and reduce the environmental impacts of our business practices.

Today marks the beginning of a journey that will ultimately bring together many businesses, environmental organizations, and individuals to develop ways to work towards a cleaner future. Please check back often and keep in touch - I look forward to working on a noble and practical vision with you all!
