Walking the Talk

New Society Publishers is committed to building an ecologically sustainable and just society not just through education, but through action. We're walking our talk. We're acting on our commitment to the world's remaining ancient forests by phasing out our paper supply from ancient forests worldwide, and by going carbon neutral!

Ancient-Forest Friendly Paper

In summer of 2001, with the publication of Stormy Weather: 101 Solutions to Global Climate Change, New Society committed to publishing all of its forthcoming regular books on acid-free paper that is 100% old growth forest-free (100% post-consumer recycled), processed chlorine free, and printed with vegetable based, low VOC inks. We were the first North American publisher to make such a commitment. Sourcing this paper initially from New Leaf Paper in San Francisco, we have since printed over half a million books this way, and have helped start a revolution in the publishing industry.
