Ask Mr. Green
We’re considering buying lightweight exhibits to make them more sustainable. Is this a Greener way to go?
Lightweight exhibits certainly reduce the high cost of drayage. But do they offer the environmental benefits we think they do? Let’s take a look.
The shipping industry, Rocky Mountain Institute, Northeast States Center for a Clean Air Future (NESCCAF), federal agencies, and the National Research Council (NRC) have looked at this question carefully, and their conclusions might surprise you.
