Go Green by Simply Turning a Page
Spring is nearly here and it’s time to start thinking green. Not just green grass, fresh flowers and warm sunshine…but the small steps you can take towards a healthier future here on Earth. One of the newest, easiest and biggest way to reduce your impact is to stop cutting down trees! No, I don’t mean the afternoons you spend in the backyard with the brush-hog…I’m talking about the books, magazines and newspapers you read.
Thankfully technology has come a long way and as painful as it may sound, reading your favorite print on a digital device is just as enjoyable and dare I say it…much, much better.
The top of the line in digital reading devices is the Kindle 2: Amazon’s New Wireless Reading Device. It’s as thin as a magazine, lighter than a paperback and holds over 1,500 books. It reads just like a book with electronic paper technology and zero glare. Think you’ll run out of titles? Think again, there’s over 240,000 books plus U.S. and international newspapers, magazines and blogs available. Feel like just listening? Take a break and let the Kindle read out loud to you. Tired of settling for cheesy bookmarks that end up falling out and loosing your place? Kindle always remembers where you left off. It’s also great because you don’t need a computer or an internet connection to find new titles, kindle connects wirelessly from anywhere..and there’s no fees for accessing the internet. Hate shuffling around for a dictionary when you run across a word you’re not familiar with? Kindle is the dictionary and allows you to look up words on-demand. You can also sample books before a purchase, just like browsing at the bookstore. Most importantly, you’ll be saving some green…not only leaves on a tree but money in your wallet; titles are much cheaper.
