Love Your World- A Cleaner Green Book.

What a great weekend we had!  I certainly can’t complain.  So, we popped into Indigo to kill some time before meeting family for supper at Swiss Chalet.  Our kids absolutely LOVE Indigo and Swiss Chalet for that matter :-).  While the kiddo’s were playing around I stumble across this really cool childrens book.  “Love Your World…how to take care of the plants, the animals and the PLANET!”  As you can imagine I was immediately drawn to it.  The back of the book reads…This book was made with care.  While creating this book, we make an effort to recycle, turn things off, print doublesided, talk , and ask questions a little bit more.

• Our Paper- is FSC (Forest Stewardship Council) certified, which means it is sourced from responsible managed forests.  Our paper mill recycles 91% of the water required during manufacturing,our card stock for covers is recycled.
• Our Printer-  Has reduced its carbon footprint by 76% since 1994 and generates 100% of its own electricity.
• Our Inks-  Are vegetable inks, not made from petroleum products.
• There’s no Dust Jacket-  To save paper and energy.

• Our Company- Is part of pearson, a founder signatory to the UN Global compact.  This sets out a series of principles against which we measure ourselves in the areas of human rights, labor standards, the environment, and anti-corruption.

Now that’s pretty cool stuff.  From Recycling, Reducing to Reusing they’ve covered it all in a kid friendly way!  Check out the other Made with Care books that are available here.
