Promoting the positive side of print
Environmental research initiative, Verdigris, is encouraging printing industry professionals to find out more about green issues using its library of articles, news and reference links, now available on-line.
Articles cover a variety of topics, such as the basics of carbon footprinting plus reference documents such as Heidelberg's Environmental Directions and Sustainability Report and news feeds from the New Scientist and Environmental Protection UK. A directory of ISO 14000 certified printers is underway and there is no charge for printers to be included in the directory.
Managing director of Digital Dots which is responsible for Verdigris, Laurel Brunner, said: "The printing industry needs to get better at presenting its green credentials, environmental initiatives and legislation."
