The media can make people more aware of green issues. But the media itself has environmental impacts, including paper used, chemicals in inks and electricity to power computers.
Print publishers can use recycled or FSC-approved paper that hasn't come from old-growth forests and natural, chemical-free inks. Eco-friendly printing presses can use less water and energy, and careful design can reduce paper use.
