Web Design, I would agree this would be a concept, but from my experience printing in an environment is not reduced due to an EDM – at least not in the first phase of evolution. Quite possibly this becomes a second or third phase result, but the culture of a company really has to change. Now that environmentalism has more of a foothold here in the US, this may change. But the point of this article was that the company in question used statistics that really didn't add up.

I think there is the clause for iso 9002 IT, you need to shift your company towards a paper less office. Where it will help stop deforestation it also makes work easier and faster and office can be more neat than before.

Yes… I personally do believe there are issues with the global environment, and some of the initiatives are great. However, I must say I despise companies attempting to capitalize on it for their own ends.

Wow.

So, it isn’t just me? All this Green stuff?

I actually love it.

Global Warming, phut! Ted Danson – yeah, right.

But, people are BUYING IT.

It’s not really a “Barnum Effect” – it’s the high cost of energy, and the reduction in energy use means a more significant reduction in operating cost…

I am pretty sure that a lot of the scientific data is made up like you suggest

The New York Times wrote scary articles about cooling in 1924, warming in 1935, and back to cooling in 1975. So called “smart people” have been talking about Global Warming now yet the temperature as decreased since 1998 and the World Meteorlogical Organization says that 2008 will be cooler as well.

Crap… there I go on my soap box again.

Bottom line, you and I seem to agree that it is more of a marketing move than an actual “Save the Trees – Save the Environment” kind of thing.
