Care about the environment, but need to print lots of stuff for work or school? Ever wondered how many trees got cut down to make the paper you just used for that assignment?
A lot of us think about the paper we’re using. But not a lot of us think about the ink. The truth is, the manufacture of the ink we’re using, just like paper, can be damaging to the environment, especially in large amounts.
We’ve heard of recycled paper and know we can use it as a greener option, but what about all the ink we’re using?
Although there may not be a greener ink to use, we can do something to ease the burden. It is as simple as switching fonts!
Recently a Dutch company has developed a new font that they call “ecofont”. The font uses 20% less ink than other standard business fonts, by incorporating holes into the letters. This font is not only cool because at a regular size you can hardly even tell, but it looks pretty awesome in large lettering as well!
Ecofont is free to download from the following site:

Give it a try!
Peace and Blessings!
