What had printing practices got to do with trees. To think deeper, perhaps the question should be rephrase to how printing practices can save trees. This is a long shot but some how there must be a link some where. When you think of printing, you think of printer technology to ink technology and all these will they help the trees?
In fact yes..all these technology in printer ink to technology advancement in printers do help trees. An advance printer will have features that can print more information with less papers. These advance features I am talking about is the settings found in these printers where you can set multi page printing, back and front printing to squeezing two pages of information into a single piece of paper. All these can be done with advance printers and resulting in less papers used. And when there is less papers used, then tress are saved.
Then next we have printer ink technology. Advance printer ink can print on all types of paper. There is less wastage and less ink can be use to print on papers. The setting of the print quality can be set to draft, good quality to high quality print output. Since the current can be use on any paper, there isn't any need to print on special quality paper unless so require by clients or commercial projects. Hence less strains on paper quality an therefore recycel paper can be used.
The origin of printer ink had come a long way an now printing is so common in an average homes with computers. Therefore it can be seen that any developement in these two areas of printer an printer ink technology can help to save trees.
Why do we need trees? Beside being the source of papers, trees are the source of oxygen that we all breathe to keep us alive. There will never be too much trees an the more trees we can save the better. An if printing, printer an printer ink can chip in too, so much the better.
Perhaps one ay we may have environmental machines, ie machines that do not harm the environment. Just as in Sweden now, they are going for environmental rivers where they will only be given a riving license if they can show that they can help or benefit the environment. Perhaps we can start with having environmental printers as a first steps.
Lets save the environment with our printing practices from today. This saves trees too.
