What Can You Do to Help the Industry Meet Its New Environmental Goals? A Q&A With Book Industry Environmental Council Members Pete Datos and Todd Pollak
Book Business Extra: What are your thoughts on the EPA's comments on April 17?
Pollack: ... I think it's becoming clearer and clearer [that], at some point, there's going to be legislation that caps carbon emissions—if not this year, then probably not too far off into the future. And that kind of legislation will actually be an advantage to companies in industries that have taken a look at their carbon footprint and figured out about how to reduce it. And it could harm those that are caught off guard and have not taken the idea of reducing emissions seriously. So, in the context of preparing for what's likely coming down the pipeline, I think this goal puts companies that are taking actions to reduce their emissions and the book industry, as a whole, in a better position.
