E-Books Can Help Reduce Your Carbon Footprint:You see and hear the buzz words everywhere - carbon footprint, environmentally friendly and green. We're encouraged to buy, use and dispose with the environment in mind. While it's easy to recognize the negative impact of excess packaging and chemical content in many of the products we purchase, it's not so easy when it comes to reading material. 
Consider This:E-books are created electronically. No trees are cut to produce them. No ink is
used to put the words on the page. No fossil fuel is used to run presses or power trucks to move
them around the country. No storage facilities need to be heated to store boxes of books until
they are shipped to bookstores.
Consider This:It takes 12 trees to produce a ton of printing paper--24 trees for higher grade writing paper.**A mature tree can produce as much oxygen in a season as 10 people inhale in a year. Up to 35% of books printed for consumers (down from nearly 60% several years ago) are never read. They are returned to the publisher and end up in landfills. And with e-books, you can shop for your book without ever leaving home! NEWS FLASH!
Reading e-books can help you meet your commitment to reduce your carbon footprint.
