Print Associations Launch Pro-print Campaigns
In the same vein, the Printing & Graphics Association MidAtlantic (PGAMA) has also come up with an educational campaign to show that print on paper actually helps to grow trees and keep our forests from being sold for development.
"The majority of fibers used to produce paper come from woodchips, sawmill scraps and recycled paper," continues Lindgren, of PIASC. "The rest comes from trees grown in sustainable forests—essentially ‘tree farms’ that grow trees as a crop, like corn or potatoes. The demand for print actually gives landowners a strong financial incentive to plant more trees rather than sell their land for development.”
