Using eSIM technology offers several environmental benefits:

1. Reduced Raw Material: eSIMs eliminate the need for plastic since the SIM chips are integrated directly into the device.
2. Less Packaging Waste: With eSIMs pre-installed in devices, there’s no need for additional packaging for physical SIM cards, reducing waste.
3. Lower Logistics Footprint: eSIMs can be delivered directly to production sites, streamlining the supply chain.
4. Decreased Sales Footprint: Network operators can sell eSIMs digitally or online, eliminating the environmental impact of physical stores.
5. Fewer Flights: The production and distribution of eSIMs require fewer physical components, reducing the need for air shipments.

In summary, eSIM technology reduces carbon emissions by minimizing plastic waste and eliminating various stages of production and distribution associated with physical SIM cards.
