Let the light pierce through the darkness Close all old accounts, turn a new leaf Re-learn that old lesson of friendship Kill nor be killed, settle for lessening Amidst us of this fossilized hatred

Perhaps that time has not come yet when our, Gods would listen to the beats in our hearts, peace and happiness spread their glow, perhaps we would have to force Mother Time?.
The Great Green Monster
MrRollout asked:
The Internet is the Great Green Monster.
It’s the best tool so far for saving the environment. The attraction of its free services reaching large groups of people with digital content slowly consumes the market of the carbon-emitting, gas-consuming processes of the ‘old ways,’ as people and businesses bid them farewell in its favor.
Fewer and fewer and fewer trucks deliver newspapers and magazines to street corners, as their messages become viewable online. At the time of this posting, 1000s of local post offices are scheduled to close in response to the steep decline of hand-carried mail in favor of electronic mail, and while postal services have a large fleet of electric and hybrid vehicles, they still generate a significant carbon footprint. Reducing truck rolls lessens carbon emission and fuel consumption, even if it’s in the form of recharging vehicle batteries.
The Achilles heal of the Great Green Monster, however, is its real-world physical growth as demand for more and more services require real-world carbon-emitting, gas-consuming trucks to rollout thousands of nationwide and global technology deployments each week. For many years centralized management meant that businesses in technology rollouts deploy company employees nationally and internationally to install the requested services and convey the corporate message. Of course, competent installs are always a concern, but someone accurately presenting the corporate image and message was especially true prior to the advent of the Internet when company information was less readily available and customer satisfaction was imperative to assure a continued business relationship.
Leaders in telecommunications, savvy of the Internet’s ability to convey a consistent corporate message, watched the effect the industry was having on the environment with concern. The most progressive companies leveraged the Internet to present critical corporate information and found green alternatives to manpower deployments partnering with local telecom installation professionals both nationally and internationally.
Years before the American Reinvestment and Recovery Act of 2009, one of those progressive companies, Concert Technologies, developed what it calls the Nationwide Technology Deployment Method. For over a decade, Concert Technologies has utilized the Local Multi-Service Deployment Method with the green initiative of minimizing the number of truck rolls, travel time and consolidating services for every site location completed.
“There are hundreds and thousands of technology rollouts implemented every week which require field technicians to perform work at each site. This requires at least one vehicle per location and could potentially include a great deal of travel time,” said Dennis Mazaris, Concert Technologies President and Founder. “The easiest way to support the fuel-efficiency initiative is to minimize the number of truck rolls and use local contractors within close proximity of each site to perform the work.” When applicable, if you combine this with performing multiple services, which is becoming more plausible with IP technology, you can significantly decrease vehicle transportation per site by two, three and four fold.
Mazaris goes on to explain how minimizing truck rolls to each site reduces fuel used per job location, utilizing local onsite technicians cuts travel time and lowers the carbon footprint, and remote monitoring of each technician at every site provides quality assurance of site work and decreases fuel used by limiting the number of potential vehicle revisits. Concert Technologies recently released an industry-first white paper that examines the available Technology Deployment Methods used in the industry today.
Green is the new gold and digital services, like the Internet, are its brain-trust. Environmental protectionists push migration to the Internet for reasons ranging from fuel consumption to tree saving. An unspoken downside of increasing the use of data communications, however, is the carbon generation in deploying trucks for these technology rollouts. Companies like Concert Technologies are leading the way in softening that affect.
