July 19 & 20, 2010 * National Press Club * Washington, DC
Purchasing Sustainable Print 3.0 - Beyond the Basics
At this session, discover how to take sustainable efforts in print to the next level.
Has the economy made sustainable print a "like-to-have" instead of "must-have?" Does buying sustainable print need to cost more? Learn the facts vs. the myths about sustainable printing and build a manageable program for your company. Here's a look at what buying companies are doing to make a difference with limited resources.
Corporate Sustainability: Paper and Print - The Drivers, the Trends, the Leaders, Case Studies and the Future
Speaker: Derek Smith, Derek Smith and Associates
Derek will suggest that Corporate Sustainability is still in an embryonic stage and why corporate America is moving so fast toward change, who the drivers are and how this has affected the procurement of paper and print. He will speak about the consequences this movement has for suppliers of goods and services and will suggest that sustainably based procurement policies will become the rule and not the exception. He will speak about the trends and the future of scorecards and what sustainably based paper and print procurement programs might look like.
Does Paper kill trees? The Truth and the Myths
Speaker: Dr. Michael Washburn, Eastern Forests The Wilderness Society
A Paperless Society isn't going to happen but the perception that 'paper kills trees' drives public consumption of both paper and print toward digital communication. Michael Washburn will discuss US forestry management and the truth and myths of this critical issue.
