"Rethinking the Pulp in Fiction"
The Environmental Defense website has an article that calculates the annual savings in trees, waste, greenhouse gas, and total BTU's that the Canadian publisher of the next Harry Potter book will enjoy by printing on 100% post-consumer recycled paper. It also has links to sites where you can buy the Canadian version of the book.

Pulp Fiction and More
While on vacation we drove into Canada in order to buy a copy of the new Harry Potter. I checked and sure enough the book was printed on 100% post consumer recycled paper. Would you believe that the printing was done in the US??
Also, the Canadian version has the Canadian spelling. It will be interesting to compare the translations. Another friend bought the British version so they would have the original translation. It turns out that the US has an American translation!! So we got more than just recycled paper.
