Our Commitment to Green Publishing
Chelsea Green sees publishing as a tool for cultural change and ecological stewardship. We strive to align our book manufacturing
practices with our editorial mission and to reduce the impact of our business enterprise in the environment. We print our
books and catalogs on chlorine-free recycled paper, using soy-based inks whenever possible. This book may cost slightly more
because we use recycled paper, and we hope you’ll agree that it’s worth it. Chelsea Green is a member of the Green Press Initiative
(www.greenpressinitiative.org), a nonprofit coalition of publishers, manufacturers, and authors working to protect the world’s
endangered forests and conserve natural resources. Walking with the Great Apes was printed on 55-lb. Natures Natural, an FSC-certified, 30-percent postconsumer-waste recycled paper supplied by Thomson-Shore.
