The JavaOne brochure (pdf) is out.

Pop Quiz!

Q: What's different about it?

A: Zeros and Ones.

No paper.

No direct mail direct to your snailbox.

How much saved?

If we compare to last year's...

  • Total paper saved = 4.63 tons
  • Greenhouse Gases reduced (CO2 equivalents) = 13  tons (26,297 lbs)
  • Reduction in wood use = 13 tons
  • # of trees saved (assuming 1 tree makes 16.67 reams of copy paper or 8,333.3 sheets) = 111
  • Reduction in wastewater (and associated water pollution) = 78,616 gallons *(equivalent to 838K cans of soda)*
  • Reduction in solid waste (stuff sent to landfills)  = 5.1 tons

Go green!

(And then go to JavaOne

:-)
