"When media -- both print and digital are considered, they form one of the largest segments of the work-force in the USA. With size comes responsibility. First to the bottom-line, then to our society, and to the ecology; the triple bottom line. As such, we must communicate the objectives of sustainability to society. As part of the enterprise and its supply chain we have a responsibility to contribute to the reduction of our corporate carbon footprint as we manage collateral, advertising, printing and digital marketing programs," said Terry Wellman, vice president of marketing for SustainCommWorld.
Listened to by more than 3,500 people a week, "On Paper" is a bi-weekly, interview-based program focusing on relevant issues associated with sustainability trends and featuring interviews with experts in the field of corporate responsibility, renewable energies, green tech, health and well being.
Produced by NewPage in association with the recently launched PaperTellsAStory.com campaign, "On Paper" aspires to initiate a dialogue for measurable change. And not just within the paper industry -- but in every industry in which ethical and environmental stewardship is a core value to both the company and its customers.
"It is through sharing perspectives with other business leaders, centered around sustainability, that we can find new and innovative approaches to business that minimize the affect on the environment, and provide the greatest return on investment" said Amber Garwood, vice president, communications and government affairs for NewPage.
