Nowhere & 1% for the Planet

Share on

In the wake of Hurricane Sandy as well as our move further into the world of digital publishing we are thrilled to announce our partnership with 1% for the Planet. We have been so overwhelmed by your support that we felt the need to pay it forward. 1% of all future sales will go to this great organization. 1% for the Planet exists to build and support an alliance of businesses financially committed to creating a healthy planet.

“To be perfectly honest, it’s not about us. It’s about businesses recognizing that industry and ecology are inherently connected. It’s about realizing the positive effects of connecting businesses, consumers and nonprofits through philanthropy. And it’s about understanding that the true cost of doing business can be mitigated by a simple pledge to the planet.

Since 2002, 1% for the Planet has inspired members of the business community to contribute 1% of sales to environmental groups around the world. In return, this growing alliance of companies is given the opportunity not only to see their self-worth rise, but their net worth climb as well.” -1% for the Planet, About Us

  • Less paper and plastic waste from blow-in cards, wrappers, offers and renewable notices
  • Encourages a greener lifestyle, readers can browse, compare and buy information and products from their computers and tablets, which minimizes the need to get into a car.

  • Helps in resource usage reduction and cost cutting by saving on paper, ink, printing, fossil fuels, and delivery
