I agree, it was probably a poor choice of words... I was referencing a well known Internet Meme, which I probably shouldn't have and I apologize if I offended anyone. 

However... the rest of my post still stands, hopefully not "negated" by one slip of the keyboard. I do in fact give a damn about people... just so you know. 

@Nico 

Thanks!</description>

		<description>I'm not going to argue with the people who want to discount "being green" as a fad, and global warming as a myth. There's that old saying about how arguing on the Internet is like running in the special olympics... 

INSTEAD, I'm going to present you with more green options!

Consider doing business with a printer that uses "Waterless Process", as well as recycled paper and soy based inks. Not only does waterless printing produce richer, deeper colour, it saves thousands of gallons of water from being used in the first place, AND saves thousands of gallons of toxic water being disposed of.  I have two such printers in my pocket, and both produce excellent results at the same, or not too much higher price points. I use Warrens Waterless in Toronto for everything in Ontario and eastward, and Green Printer in Vancouver for everything out west. Choosing printers that are close to your clients can also cut down on the emissions it takes to ship your product. 

You can also provide a green service to your web clients by using Clean Air web hosting services. I have found Host Papa to be an excellent source of green web hosting. Your clients will also feel good that they can display this fact on their site whether they genuinely care about the environment, or just love the marketing appeal.

We only have one planet folks, lets try not to f*&#38;! it up too badly.</description>
