1000s of Trees Saved!

tree
We've been doing some figuring, and realized that since 2006, we've saved 1,111 trees (and counting!) by printing our books on post-consumer recycled paper.

Lantern has been using recycled paper since the press began in 1999, but don't have a tally going back that far. Guesstimates say we've saved over 2000 trees, and maybe even 3000!
