The Paper Pandemonium

Let's face it, there's something undeniably satisfying about flipping through the pages of a crisp book or the rustling of a newspaper in the morning. But these comforting habits have a not-so-comforting impact on our planet. As we chop down trees for paper production, we're contributing to deforestation, which has devastating consequences for our environment. On average, paper accounts for over 12,500 tons of waste in the US alone.

Enter: Digital Publishing

What if we could still indulge in our love for reading, without the environmental baggage? Well, the good news is, we can. And that's where digital publishing swoops in to save the day.

The Green Perks of Digital Publications

1. Deforestation

Approximately 14% of global deforestation is a result of our need for paper products, leading to the annual loss of nearly 4.1 million hectares of forest.

By moving towards digital ‘paper’ you’ll help tackle this percentage.

3. No More Ink Madness
Traditional printing inks are laden with harmful chemicals, including petroleum-based Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) responsible for environmental harm and potential health risks with prolonged exposure. 

In contrast, digital content spares trees and eliminates these hazardous ink pollutants. Moreover, it reduces the consumption of finite oil resources, with reports indicating that offset printing annually releases millions of tons of hydrocarbon-based inks and chemicals, contributing significantly to greenhouse gas emissions, notably carbon dioxide.

3. More than just printing

Obviously it takes energy and resources to print, but what about packaging, transportation, and delivering? Each of these steps uses a substantial amount of energy. And all of these could be taken away by publishing digitally.

Captivating Numbers

Now, for some real talk. The numbers don't lie. According to the Environmental Paper Network, the paper industry is a major contributor to deforestation, habitat destruction, and greenhouse gas emissions. In the United States alone, it's responsible for nearly 40% of all timberland harvested. Digital publishing, on the other hand, offers a sustainable alternative that can drastically reduce these numbers.
