GO GREEN!

BE Magazine is preparing to enter the third year of our “Go Green” efforts. Because of this, we remain committed to remaining a 100% digital magazine. Publishing to the web has its own unique challenges, but the BE Team believes that the days of print magazines are numbered, and that we must not sacrifice tomorrow for today. With your help, we can significantly reduce our “Eco-Footprint”. BE staff have started car pooling, taking public transportation, implemented a recycling program, reduced paper usage by increasing electronic communication and re-using scrap paper for inter-office memos,  and are preparing to install a water-filter so that staff can enjoy filtered tap water rather than consume bottled water, and have reduced the amount of paper that will be mailed to participants.
