GREEN scene

The Sustainable Green Printing (SGP) Partnership recently held its first stakeholders meeting in Arlington, VA. On hand were representatives from the PIA/GATF, SGIA and FTA, the U.S. EPA, Virginia Department of Environmental Quality, Audubon International and GreenTrack Strategies, as well as printers representing different processes. During the meeting, it was agreed that the focus of sustainable printing would have to extend beyond environmental concerns and focus on all three important concepts of sustainability: people, profits and the planet.
