There's a lot of talk about things like "global warming," "climate change," and "energy crisis" in the media today. And rightly so. These are issues we, our children, and our children's children, will have to deal with in the coming century.
So it's good to see that industries across the board are beginning to make changes that speak to the growing concern in our society about these daunting issues.
For example, here's a little something about Xerox and one of their recent attempts towards environmental responsibility:

Now, we're in no way promoting this company's new line of copy-printers which claim to make color copying as cheap as black and white (we did a post on this weeks ago, which you can view below). Sure, there very well may be instances where consumers actually would save money buying one of those machines, paying for the regular maintenance and solid ink stick refills, etc., but we hold true that 95 percent of the time, the business or individual will be saving more putting that burden on us. We're simply commending Xerox's baby steps in reducing energy consumption and waste from traditional ink cartridges.
More about color copies and printing, and their impact on the environment, coming soon.
