The Greening of Graphic Design

rsz_5green.jpgAs everyone knows, "Green" is in. Even car manufacturers and oil companies are green!

If you are a graphic designer and want to get greener, you may be interested in this blog: 101 Things Designers Can Do to Save the World. It covers everything from why you should avoid bleeds to finding inks that don't contain "volatile organic compounds." The site was created by The School of Visual Concepts, with the cooperation of AIGA Seattle and Aquent.

If you are interested in other resources that help designers design more greenishly, aside from the links you'll find on the "101 Things" site, you should also explore re-nourish.com, which has an illuminating "Sustainability Toolkit" section.
