by 10/02/08 No Comments

“You Can’t Afford Not To Be Green.” That’s both the title and message of a new eBook from YUDU Media, whose site lets anyone publish, share, buy or sell eBooks and other digital documents.

According to the book, going green allows businesses to save money on a range of fronts, as well as appeal to consumers who are looking for eco-friendly options.

Among other ideas, the book provides details on why it can be beneficial to:

  • Use digital publishing to save on print, paper and postage
  • Recycle and purchase recycled paper and ink cartridges
  • Recycle old cell phones and computers
  • Utilize reusable coffee mugs and water bottles
  • Practice computer sharing by turning one PC into a hub for many users
