OSM Now Printed on Forest Stewardship Council Certified Paper

Beginning with the August issue, Outpatient Surgery Magazine and its supplements will be published on 30% post-consumer waste and partially recycled paper that is certified by Forest Stewardship Council (FSC). Using recycled paper reduces pressure to harvest trees for papermaking and requires less water, compared to paper made from virgin wood. Post-consumer waste and recycled paper diverts waste from the landfill. FSC certification ensures that the virgin trees used to make the paper come from well managed forests that help the environment and that the pulp providers, mills and printers meet the international organization’s standards.
