The greening of Explore

The current issue of Explore magazine (Quarto Communications) has definitely joined the good guys by switching to 100% post-consumer recycled stock.

Editor James Little says the switch saves 1,034 trees a year, conserves 1.3 million litres of water, reduces solid-waste production by 87,600 pounds and cuts CO2 emissions by more than 200,000 pounds.

Outdoor Canada and Canadian Home Workshop are also making the switch, as of our upcoming May issues. Let's hope the trend grows.
