Perhaps no topic has more misinformation, more fact
and fiction, than sustainability.
There is a great need for education and clear thinking.
Do you want to "go green?" Do you have a clear
understanding of why? Are you prepared to pay more?
Will your customers pay more? Have you found ways
for green to cost less? Do you know what drives your
customers.
Jack Miller has conducted research on green attitudes
with paper companies, printers, print buyers,
packaging companies, consumers, and brand
companies. He has also co-authored a major study
"Sustainable Print in a Dynamic Global Market - What
Going Green Means" This study was published by
PRIMIR, and is available to PRIMIR members. For
information about PRIMIR or this study, visit PRIMIR at

Network, a consortium of brand companies, packaging
companies, packaging converters, and biopolymer
producers. The group explored issues relating to:
- biodegradability and composting
