Harry Potter is eco friendly too



When a new book is launched all the excited and publicity overrides any concerns for green issues, after all a book that has 800 pages and the first book sold 8.5 million copies, that is a lot of trees! Around 252,000 to be exact. So considering that there are six books and now a seventh the tree world would surely think that Harry Potter is defiantly not eco friendly at all.

Thankfully the publishers of the books have taken all of the criticism and the seventh book is now being spoke of as being the greenest book in history, now that is what you call eco friendly. With 750 pages the paper is made from recycled post consumer, chlorine free and wood fiber certified by the Forest Stewardship Council.

It is estimated that around 130,000 trees were actually saved this time around, quite a turn around.
