In those days the Guide covered TV as well as radio, which could only manage to fill two pages – but then there were only 19 “ILR” stations.

    FOR THE UP AND COMING AND ALREADY ARRIVED $3 • Vol II: ISSUE 7 • APRIL 10 vbFRONT.com our Radio Story A Careful BANKRUPTCY! BUSINESSBUSINESSand the EnvironmentEnvironment A New Generation of TREE-HUGGING SUITS meta- Gwen Mason, materials Clean Valley Council WELCOME to the FRONT You have to wonder why any publication would print an “environmental issue” or, as most call it, a “green issue.” It’s counterintuitive to the degree that it points a big neon finger at the publication saying: “Polluter.” Environmental Defense has estimated that producing one ton of fresh uncoated paper (about 90 percent of the paper used in the U.S. for printing and writing) uses three tons of wood, 19,075 gallons of water, and generates 2,278 pounds of solid waste. Ink is often a water pollutant. Not so “green,” huh? With that in mind, Valley Business FRONT’s April, 2010 Environmental Issue is producing none of that waste, cutting none of those trees and not using all that water. It’s a digital issue and the carbon footprint—though not zero, since almost nothing has no impact—is minimal. This is a one-time statement for us and you’ll have that lovely little slick European-style magazine on your desk again the first week of May. But we thought we’d show you what the future looks like, a future where environmental consciousness changes some dynamics—like printing. Every month, we hear from readers, “I love the look, the feel and the smell of your magazine” and that is music to our ears.
