Since 2008, myclimate has been offering Swiss printers the option to either make the entire printing works climate-neutral or to offer their customers <link https: ch.myclimate.org en carbon-management-services programs printing-industry.html>climate-neutral printed matter. <link http: ch.myclimate.org en network partners-and-clients myclimate-map.html>70 companies are already making use of this option and the number is on the rise. The printers <link http: www.cavelti.ch index.php>Cavelti AG (Gossau), <link http: www.allprint.ch index.html>allprint ag (Wattwil) and <link http: www.abaecherli.ch oekologie klimaneutrales-drucken.html>Abächerli Druck AG (Sarnen) recently joined this printing industry solution.
Starting in 2013, printers will have the option to offset climate-neutral printed matter for their customers in a customised print portfolio. This comprises one project in Switzerland and one in Brazil. Energy and heat will be generated in Switzerland through the construction of two agricultural biogas plants, while at the same time cutting methane emissions. The project in Brazil's Amazon region will see FSC wood waste used to generate electricity, replacing climate-damaging diesel generators.
