Buy books to create a better world
by Shang Lee
I’ve just ordered my first book from BetterWorld.com. It aims to meet the Triple Bottom Line – social impact, environmental impact and economic impact. It also uses carbonfree shipping. It’s not actually carbon free as the book still has to travel the distances and the vehicles that carry it still has to emit those carbon emissions. What it claims to do is to “… buy clean energy credits to reverse deforestation…”. The credits are based on the estimates calculated in Carbonfund.org.
The book I bought is cheaper compared to elsewhere, and the shipping cost is $2.97 flat. It took 1 whole month to arrive. If you are looking to buy a book the next time, try BetterWorld.com. Who knows, if what they claim they’re doing is actually having a positive impact to the environment, we might be able to create a better world after all! If not, you’ve got yourself a bargain anyway. That must be worth waiting for.
