Greenpeace, an environmentalist organisation, has started a petition to campaign that
Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, the sixth Potter novel due for release on July 16th, should be printed on ancient forest-friendly paper.
The
petition is to the American publishers,
Scholastic.
The Canadian publishers,
Raincoast Books, did something similar for OotP, when it had all of its books printed on post-consumer recycled paper.
Jo Rowling, the author herself, has previously said the following on the issue,
Quote:
"The forest at Hogwarts is home to magical creatures like unicorns and centaurs. Because the Canadian editions are printed on ancient forest-friendly paper, the Harry Potter books are helping to save magnificent forests in the Muggle world, forests that are home of magical animals such as orangutans, wolves and bears. It's a good idea to respect ancient trees, especially if they have a temper like the Whomping Willow."
