Your eco-friendly Mornington Peninsula Magazine
Did you know the team at Mornington Peninsula Magazine are lifelong ‘greenies’ committed to reducing our ecological footprint and promoting sustainable practices? Like us, we know our readers are socially conscious citizens who seek out and support environmentally-friendly options across all aspects of their lives. Here’s are some of the ways we do that:
• In our effort to minimise environmental impact, we adopt a selective distribution strategy. You will find our baskets across the Mornington Peninsula and Greater Frankston, where we ensure magazines are picked up and there is no waste. We also deliver physical copies to carefully chosen businesses across the Mornington Peninsula and Greater Frankston area, ensuring that every magazine reaches eager readers and avoiding unnecessary waste.
• We also understand the importance of digital accessibility when it comes to sustainability; that's why we provide a convenient QR code on our baskets so readers can choose to save paper and reduce waste by simply scanning the code to enjoy our magazine online. Our rapidly growing online readership of more than 10,000 people each month is testament to the success of this initiative.
• We prioritise sustainable sourcing by printing on paper derived from responsibly managed forests. This choice supports eco-friendly forestry practices and contributes to the preservation of natural resources. Our printers use vegetablebased inks, which are less harmful to the environment compared with petroleumbased inks and also make the magazine suitable for composting. By making these conscious choices, we reduce emissions and lessen our overall carbon footprint.
• Even after reading your printed copy of Mornington Peninsula Magazine, you can continue to contribute to sustainability by composting it or placing it in your recycling bin alongside other paper and cardboard waste. By disposing of it responsibly, you actively participate in a circular economy and reduce landfill. By embracing eco-friendly practices, we hope to set an example that the rest of the publishing industry will follow.
So whether you prefer the convenience of online reading or the tactile experience of a printed magazine, Mornington Peninsula Magazine offers an eco-conscious option. Join us in our mission to promote sustainability while staying informed about the vibrant community and scenic beauty of the Mornington Peninsula.
Together, we can make a difference and inspire others to embrace eco-friendly measures for a better future.
