I just got a note from them in the mail that they are now CARBON NEUTRAL. This is a huge step forward in printing, and they deserve some recognition for their efforts. What does Carbon Neutral mean, you ask? It means that they do their part to reduce their carbon dioxide emissions to the point where they are eliminating as much as they are producing.
Through use of wind power, participation with the Forest Stewardship Council (FSC), reforestation programs, waterless printing and solvent and materials recycling, they have become one of the most environmentally friendly printers in the country. That's a big accomplishment. Oh, and for those that don't think an environmentally conscious printer is important, consider this - in printing the note they sent me and their other customers in the mail, their environmentally friendly methods saved the following resources:
6 trees
18 lbs of water-born waste not created
2,589 gallons wastewater flow saved
287 lbs solid waste not generated
564 lbs net greenhouse gases prevented
4,318,000 BTUs of energy not consumed
293 lbs air emissions not generated
697 cubic feet natural gas unused
All this is the equivalent to planting 20 trees or not driving 318 miles....
