]]> Comment on Paperless Trade Shows – do they really reduce waste? by kylistah http://robertmiggins.wordpress.com/2008/09/22/paperless-trade-shows-do-they-really-reduce-waste/#comment-53 kylistah Sat, 27 Sep 2008 03:54:04 +0000 http://robertmiggins.wordpress.com/?p=19#comment-53 I agree Robert. I often hear people calling it "The Greener and More Cost-Effective Press Kit". For business, yes the thumb drives are cheaper to ship in bulk than the paper and you can reduce your fees for payment of graphic designers, printers, and paper suppliers. Not to mention every time you use it you'll be reminded of the company that you got it from. But that has nothing to do with being green. I think the next time someone hands me a thumb drive with their materials on it, I'm going to ask them why they chose that over paper. When they tell me it's all about going green, I'll respond with - "How is all this plastic better for the environment?" The answers should be interesting. I agree Robert.
