I work for one of the big Japanese banks in the US. Up until covid, whenever we had to get documents approved by Tokyo, we had to get it stamped, then overnight the physical paper to Japan for management to review and stamp it. Depending on the situation/document, they'd overnight the paper back to the US. Only after covid did the bank start implementing electronic signatures.

It is incredible how wasteful the corporate and bureaucratic world is, all the while individual consumers are exhorted to give up random things in the name of doing good for the environment. "Carbon footprint" my @ss.
