sustainability practices.
Digital sustainability is an ongoing journey for my business and reflects my commitment to reducing environmental impact. By focusing on digital products, I aim to lower the carbon footprint of my art.
My approach centers on energy efficiency, digital inclusion and accessibility, and fostering a sustainable mindset. I recognize that creating oracles and guidebooks and hosting a website still have environmental costs, so I’ve adopted several sustainable practices, outlined below.
CLEAN
The services we provide and services we use will be powered by renewable energy.
EFFICIENT
The products and services we provide will use the least amount of energy and material resources possible.
OPEN
The products and services we provide will be accessible, allow for the open exchange of information, and allow users to control their data.
HONEST
The products and services we provide will not mislead or exploit users in their design or content.
REGENERATIVE
The products and services we provide will support an economy that nourishes people and planet.
RESILIENT
The products and services we provide will function in the times and places where people need them most.
printed products.
I partner with DriveThruCards to print and ship on demand, reducing waste versus traditional mass production.
PRINT ON DEMAND
DriveThruCard’s core business model is to print cards only when they are ordered. This eliminates the need for large print runs and reduces the risk of unsold inventory that would otherwise end up as waste.
DIRECT TO CONSUMER
By selling directly to consumers, DriveThruCards can bypass traditional retail channels that often generate significant packaging and transportation waste. This direct relationship with customers also enables ongoing feedback and continuous improvements related to sustainability.
FAMILY CENTRIC
DriveThruCards is described as community and family-focused, which often aligns with a commitment to sustainability and responsible business practices.
website hosting.
The internet is a major source of pollution. To do my part, this website is hosted on GreenGeeks’ servers, which are powered by green energy. Choosing GreenGeeks means my online space isn’t just another website—it’s a small but meaningful step toward a greener, cleaner internet.
And because GreenGeeks is committed to going green, they plant a tree for every new hosting account. That means there’s a cute little tree somewhere that ValkyriePierce.com helped support.
