Printing a Book the Sustainable Way ...
How does a socially responsible organization, WorldChanging, that is both socially responsible and green - publish a 608 page book? Think of the energy and waste involved!
One would think this would be an oxymoron - AND one would be wrong!!
"World: A User's Guide to the 21st Century" is broken into 7 sections:
Stuff, Shelter, Cities, Community, Business, Politics, Planet.
It may well be uniquely "green" book as "Publisher Harry N. Abrams ... bought wind-power credits to offset the energy used to produce the book, made from post-consumer recycled paper".
To counter the environmental impact of their multi-city book tour "the group is investing in greenhouse gas reduction ".
The book of course can be recycled!
