M S L A G J ? ? ? ? K Acton/Georgetown, Friday, May 9, 2008 23 With Earth Day having just passed and the new GreenCart program well under way, living a greener lifestyle is on a lot of peoples minds. While, reducing your ecological footprint can seem like a daunting task, a new book by Eric Sorensen, Seven Wonders for a Cool Planet, suggests that seven very simple household items can be the keys to living a greener existence. And one of those seven is the humble library book. Now when you think about it, a library is your ultimate book/maga- zine/newspaper recycler. Imagine how much paper could be saved. If you were to add up your daily news- paper, your magazine subscriptions, books for the kids, recreational read- ing for yourself, it could potentially be as much as half-a-tree-worth of paper over a year. The number of households in Halton Hills, according to the 2006 Census, is 19,265. If you assume there could be 1,000 trees per hectare, this would mean approxi- mately 8.5 hectares of forest could be saved if everyone used their public library. And if you look at the figures for Ontario, it could be almost 2,500 hectares. Granted this calculation does not account for how much of the paper is from recycled sources or for the fact that it isnt always practical to go to the library for all your reading materi- al, but you can see that even borrow- ing a portion from the public library could result in a significant amount of paper saved. Your public library can also help you recycle books you have bought yourself. We happily accept dona- tions of books in good condition (no textbooks or encyclopedias, please). Any that we can add to our library collections we will, making them available for others people to borrow. Any books that we cannot add to the library go to our book sales where people can purchase them for a nomi- nal charge. This helps raise money for the library and makes use of books that might otherwise be collecting dust, or worse, sitting in a landfill. So next time you are contemplat- ing a book purchase or cleaning out your book shelves, think of how your public library can help you share your love of reading and make the world a little greener at the same time.
