FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE NEW EBOOK SELLER, ECOBRAIN.COM, DRAWS ATTENTION TO THE ENVIRONMENTAL BENEFITS OF EBOOKS
PEORIA, IL, May 23, 2008 2008 --/WORLD-WIRE/-- EcoBrain.com, the #1 seller of eBooks about the environment and environmentally friendly living from hundreds of top publishers is, for the first time, drawing attention to the dramatic environmental benefits of eBooks. Much press has been given to the increased popularity of eBooks recently, but little has been said about the environmental benefits of eBooks. Research shows that eBooks are on par with reusable water bottles and grocery bags in terms of their ability to give consumers affordable, green buying alternatives. Paper manufacturing practices are among the 3rd largest polluters of air, land and water. Many of the books read today were printed overseas, shipped to the US and other countries by boat, trucked to distribution centers and then trucked to the local bookstore. 1 hour of energy spent on a laptop computer, equals the amount of energy expended to create just 4 sheets of paper. And of course, eBooks do not use trees to produce. Because eBooks bypass all of these processes, many of them are sold at 30% below retail, making them an excellent choice for budget conscious consumers. EcoBrain.com is dedicated to making the affordable and environmentally sound choice of eBooks a commonly known, eco-friendly alternative for consumers everywhere. Though EcoBrain.com does not advocate or encourage the end of the printed book, it is certain that consumers can easily and affordably incorporate eBooks into their lives. EcoBrain.com offers thousands of titles, from hundreds of top publishers, about the environment. Their selection of titles includes environmental science, vegetarian and vegan cookbooks, biographies, kids’ books, how-to guides, green architecture titles, organic gardening, composting and more. Book reviewers and journalists are encouraged to contact EcoBrain for free access to comp copies and complimentary press access to the EcoBrain.com eBook buying process.
