On Tuesday, November 10 2009, 100 book review bloggers will simultaneously publish their book review of a "green" book of their choice. This unique campaign, organized by Eco-Libris , aims to encourage both publishers and readers to get greener and make sure books are printed responsibly.

Over 35 publishers from the U.S., Canada and the U.K. are taking part in this campaign, providing participating bloggers with their latest books printed on recycled paper and FSC-certified paper for review.

NeWest Press is included on the list, as a publisher who strives to protect our Home Place, with full knowledge of the toll that publishing can take on the environment. The text paper used for printing all of our latest books is acid-free, 100% old growth forest-free (100% post-consumer recycled).

NeWest Press also published books focused on the understanding and preservation of the environment, such as Salal by Laurie Ricou, and the upcoming release of Stephen Legault 's The Darkening Archipelago .
