Group to Protest National Geographic Printing Methods

The “National Geographic: Practice What You Print” campaign will have its official kickoff Oct. 12, and people will be encouraged to show their support of National Geographic switching to partially recycled paper. “It’s hypocritical for National Geographic to not use recycled paper,” said Paige Milch, 19, an elementary education sophomore at UF (University of Florida, Gainesville).

“National Geographic has inspired such environmentalism, yet they are not printing on recycled paper.”

Milch organized the National Geographic campaign for the UF campus through her internship with Student Public Interest Research Group. The campaign will also take place on campuses across the nation.
