91³Ô¹ÏÍø

Cape Kiwanda – a rugged, windswept peninsula on the Oregon Coast – is the reason I’m an environmental studies major. A few years ago, tourists there destroyed a sandstone pillar that had been a symbol of peace to me since my childhood days watching waves crash into rocks. At once I knew my purpose: to protect the places I hold so dear.

That, in essence, is really what sustainability is about.

Sustainable Printing

91³Ô¹ÏÍø Magazine — which first featured this story on sustainability — is printed on a stock called “Conservation” – it’s 100% post-consumer recycled, and with plant-based inks, is fully compostable. Our printing partner generates power with rooftop solar panels — just one example of its efforts to reduce its carbon footprint.
