Let’s start
with the bottom line: We believe in providing
people with easy and affordable ways to take responsibility
for their actions and go green. We don’t
believe in preaching doom and gloom. It’s
not our style. We do believe in taking action
and in the power of small changes to make a big
impact.
Books are everywhere, just look around: on bookshelves
at home, in college students' backpacks, in the
mail from the book club or in that pile in your
room right now. For some people they’re
for education, for others they’re an entertaining
escapade and for some, reading is really a passion.
Eco-Libris is for everyone. We are a green company
that enables people to do something reasonable,
affordable yet with an impact: plant one tree
for every book they read. We believe that taking
responsibility for the environmental impact of
the books we read is only natural.
We strive for a world where reading books doesn’t
have adverse effects on the environment, and therefore
our mission is to make reading much more sustainable
than it is today.
Eventually (and hopefully sooner than later),
all books will be made from recycled paper and other
eco-friendly materials (as well as greener electronic format - for more about it see our ebooks page). But until then, we can
still do something to make the world a greener place.
We hope not only to see more trees being planted,
but also that the Eco-Libris stickers you receive to put
on the books you green up with us will inspire you
to keep looking for more ways to make a difference and make your life more sustainable.
We invite
you to join us now and share in our vision of
a better world.
