ABOUT OUR SUSTAINABILITY INITIATIVES
This book is carefully crafted to minimize environmental impact. The materials used to
manufacture this book originated from sources committed to responsible forestry practices.
The paper is FSC
® certified. The binding, cover, and paper come from facilities that minimize
waste, energy consumption, and the use of harmful chemicals.
Pearson closes the loop by recycling every out-of-date text returned to our warehouse. We pulp
the books, and the pulp is used to produce items such as paper coffee cups and shopping bags.
In addition, Pearson aims to become the first climate neutral educational publishing company.
The future holds great promise for reducing our impact on the Earth’ s environment, and
Pearson is proud to be leading the way. We strive to publish the best books with the most
up-to-date and accurate content, and to do so in ways that minimize our impact on the Earth.
