Publishing's carbon footprint
|
Like every other part of the economy, the publishing industry is turning its attention to the issue of global warming and looking at ways to reduce its carbon footprint. Two significant industry reports have recently been released in the United States, examining publishing's environmental impact. Ed McCoyd, director of digital policy for the Association of American Publishers, was involved with both publications.
