For a Company

Everyone measures and reports, but the numbers get darker.

Electronic waste (e-waste) is the fastest-growing waste sector in the world.

According to GESP, only 17.4% of the e-waste produced in 2019 was officially handled. Up to 82.6% of e-waste was handled illegally – and a large part of it was thrown into low or middle-income countries.

According to the World Health Organization, proper disposal of 17.4% of e-waste avoided about 15 million tons of carbon dioxide equivalent emissions into the atmosphere

GreenDice has a vision of revaluing your used IT devices for ESG goals and looking for a positive impact on society while fighting against e-waste.

How do GreenDice partners win?

1. Carbon footprint, for whom and for what, if there is no right logic and goal behind it.

We have cloud-based software that displays device life cycles based on serial numbers until material recycling. If the life cycles are not traceable to the end, you cannot report the CO2 amount calculated based on the manufacturers’ LCA (life cycle analysis).

This is the same as reporting driving an electric car as zero-emission, but in fact, the electricity that moves the car is produced from oil shale.

Measurable and traceable extension of device life cycles provides an opportunity to share the CO2 footprint of device production among different users.

2. Our system allows you to monitor the full life cycle of each device until material recycling.

There are two common options on the market, renting and buying equipment.

The rental model is not green if it is not possible to control the further life of the equipment, it is nice that things are taken away from under your nose, but what happens to them next? Renting is a long-standing model in Europe, but it has not reduced the rise of electronic waste.

Buying out equipment is cheaper, but later donations, directing to employees, and selling are also activities that lose further tracking.

Neither solution is a sustainable solution to reduce electronic waste!

3. We bring the IT world with educational support to every corner of the world for 5.9€ per month, which is GreenDice’s mission!

Our vision is environmentally conscious consumers, so we go and talk about how your current consumption habits can change the lives of many people.

Imagine that GreenDice offers IT world service in Georgia and locals know that they belong to the European Union’s green plan – wouldn’t it be nice if we saw how nature-saving deeds help us all!

But at the moment we are in Estonia and the IT world 5.9€ per month is available to every responsible Estonian:  Join into our community!
