Duncan Bock, Melcher’s editorial director, accepted the award on behalf of Melcher Media, and Bonnie Eldon, associate publisher, also attended the event.
‘Green’ for More Than a Decade
The University of California Press established a corporate environmental sustainability policy in 1995. It publishes approximately 200 new books and 40 multi-issue journals each year, and uses post-consumer recycled-content paper in about 75 percent of its books. An estimated 50 percent of its titles are printed on FSC-certified paper, and 25 percent on paper certified by the Sustainable Forestry Initiative (SFI). Much of the paper is produced using biogas.
