Whilst on the subject of the future of newsprint,this posting from Emmak89’s Blog (ht-Paul Bradshaw) makes one thing of another consequence of the printed word.
how much paper, and therefore trees, is wasted on newspapers and magazines before. The amount of paper that is printed, to just be read or even just skimmed through once, then thrown away, is huge. According to enotes, on average a years worth of a newspaper (one a day) produces 250 kilograms of waste paper. And when you think about how light paper is, that’s quite a lot!
So is that one more reason to convert to 100 per cent online.
When you see the scattered paper of the freebie Metros and MEM around Manchester you wonder whether this might not be a bad move
