Oh my, ECM hug a tree

Well has ECM gone green or what.

Does this mean that I am not allowed to be an ECM "petrol head"? Does that mean that Open Source is better for the planet and that ECM Large suites are the information gas guzzling bad guys?

ECM - Are we heading for Green Information? Are we running out of trees?

Well from the all about paper web page it states that we have more trees in the US than there were 70 years ago, see here. 2.5 billion trees are planted every year and forest growth has exceeded harvest each year since 1940. Now does that mean that the US would get mega carbon credits ? Let's not go there.

But what about all the power that we are using with this online information. How is this power supplied, coal, water, nuclear ? Does this affect the green nature of my information?

Hmm, I guess I better print this out and think about it some more !
