Per head, the UK sends more greeting cards than any other country in the world. When you look at our fondness for sending greeting cards, in terms of its effects on the environment, it is not a pretty sight. It is partly due to this consciousness that the Hope Spring eCard platform was created.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Every little step we take to reduce our carbon footprint can only be a good thing. When you send an eCard, instead of a paper based greeting card, you are contributing in a small way to reducing your carbon footprint and helping the environment.<\/span>\u00a0<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.4.0″][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.4.0″][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.4.0″ text_font=”Roboto||||||||” text_font_size=”19px” text_letter_spacing=”1px” text_line_height=”1.3em”]<\/p>\n Another reason <\/span>Hope Spring<\/span><\/a> ecards was created by <\/span>Temi Odurinde<\/span><\/a> and other Hope Spring volunteers, was to help the charity achieve its objectives of alleviating water poverty.
