Chinook Book Manufacturing Statement

Paper
Text printed on Grays Harbor Opaque, 40% post-consumer recycled content, process-chlorine free. This paper is made locally in Grays Harbor, Wash. Cover printed on Cascade Opaque.

Ink
We use the highest soy content possible for our web printing process. Here are the soy contents of four ink colors: Black: 14%; Cyan: 8.5%; Magenta: 10%; Yellow: 6.5%

Climate
We worked with the non-profit organization LiveNeutral to analyze the greenhouse gas impacts of the entire sales, production and distribution process for Chinook Book. The total estimated CO2 equivalent emissions add up to 5.6 pounds per copy of Chinook Book. We received offsets from LiveNeutral at double that amount for good measure.
