[PrintOwners] FSC

[Bernard Bahn]

Bob:

One suggestion is to see if your local electric utility has a REC
(replacement energy credit) program available. For every kilowatt you of
energy you use, the utility brings in a kilowatt of renewable energy into
the power grid; mostly wind energy. In St. Louis, the electric utility is
Ameren, and they call the program Pure Power. It costs about 20-25% more
every month, but it will give you a solid green story to tell that is much
more tangible than the FSC scam.

Unfortuantely, some customers have an FSC mandate they put on printers,
simply because FSC did a good job of selling them on their debateable green
virtues.
