Save The Trees: Print Books On Straw Rather Than Paper

Posted at 8:13AM Friday 08 Mar 2013

Yann Martel and Alice Munro have joined forces with Canopy, an award-winning environmental not-for-profit organization dedicated to protecting the world's forests, species and climate, to publish signed collectors' editions of their books, Life of Pi and Dear Life, specially printed on forest-saving Second Harvest paper made from straw rather than trees. The books highlight a viable solution to logging carbon rich forests for paper.
