The Magazine Paper Project linked top left is the organization most responsible in the U.S. for orchestrating the shift by major print publications over to recycled/tree-free paper stock and soy/veggie inks.

Old growth forests are still cut down for paper. Tree farms yield less fiber suitable for paper pulp than hemp. Most guilty are Hachette/Filipacchi (who bring you the Green issue of ELLE) and Conde Nast (who bring you the Green issue of Vanity Fair.)

Lü magazine has been collaborating with the Magazine Paper Project since 2001, educating editors and publishers, urging them to make the switch... despite the slightly higher production costs.

Lü assists a rising young crop of "green" magazines develop all aspects of sustainable production, identifying new markets, seeking like minded talent, developing suitable advertising and graphic art direction.

Below is a partial list of green magazine titles using the services of models and photographers, who seek images produced with the same care and attention given their green editorial commitment.

Most have newsstand distribution, others are more "boutique" with circulation limited to regional, trade or niche markets.

All aspire to be full service environmentally-friendly projects, inspiring professionals involved in every aspect of magazine production.
