The Academy of Management Headquarters Staff would like to thank those members who visited the Green Booth in Chicago and made the switch to electronic-only for their journal delivery. According to the Environmental Defense Fund calculator , members that used the Green Booth in Chicago will help the Academy and the environment in just one year to save approximately:
• 10 trees that are 40 feet tall and 6-8” in diameter, from not printing the journals!
• 14 million BTUs, representing the energy saved from the paper making process!
• 2,957 lbs CO2, from paper decomposing in landfills!
• 9,381 gallons of waste water, used at the paper mills!
• 1,111 pounds of solid waste, byproducts of the pulping and paper manufacturing process!
For members who didn’t make it to Chicago, or missed the opportunity to use the Green Booth while you were there, you can still change your journal delivery options today! Simply login to the Academy of Management website and click on the link to “Update Your Journal Delivery Options.”
