Campus Print Management (.com)

Academia Embraces Green:
With the cost of fuel and an eye on the environment, universities seek solutions to stem free printing and unclaimed print waste on campus.

Its a simple idea, but it solves a problem nearly everyone can relate to: The ubiquitous wasted page. This is the page with just a URL, banner ad, legal disclaimer, etc. These wasted pages occur many times a day littering homes and offices around the world and wasting money, trees, and time. The problem is 100-times worse in paper-intensive campuses.

It’s not by coincidence that TreeHugger.com was a $10 million acquisition. Or why GreenPrint Technologies won Oxford University’s Venture Fund Competition.

For years, intelligent and visionary communicators have been demanding environmentally-friendly printing materials and procedures for their projects. Now it’s time to go beyond recycled paper and print with real planetary responsibility.

> 35% of the worldwide wood harvest ends up as paper
> The United States threw out 20% of all the paper made in the world
> One fifth of all the tropical rainforests in the world disappeared between 1960 and 1990
> Only 3% of the Earth’s water is fresh
> Europe and America have less than one-half of their original forest cover
> Fresh Kills Landfill in Staten Island, New York is the highest mountain on the east coast, south of Maine
> It takes about 31 million BTU’s to make a ton of paper enough energy to power a U.S. home for 2 months

Taking control of documents on campus is a major opportunity for print management software providers. And campusprintmanagement.com can deliver it as an application, widget or blog.
