Why The Ebook Store?
* "the total carbon footprint of the average book is 8.85 pounds of greenhouse gases, that covers all aspects of production, packaging, distribution & retailing - JUST this single statistic alone is reason enough for this venture!!".
Check out the facts......in the U.S. alone:
* each year approximately 30 million trees are felled for the production of books alone.
* this generates approximately 42 billion gallons of wastewater.
* 13 million metric tons of CO2 greenhouse gasses are emitted as a result of this (thats the same as created by 7 million cars).
* you can make roughly 1,000 books of 500 pages each from a single tree.
* a "best selling author" on average sells 20 million books a year, thats 20,000 trees - each year.
* a top "best selling author" sells 400 million books each a year, thats 400,000 trees - each year.
The Benefits of Ebooks:
* NO negative effects on the environment!.
* NO bulky home-storage required,keep your home library on your p.c!.
