Should we embrace Print Media in an age of sustainability? In a recent Sarah and Dan Nugget chat, they delved into the ever-evolving landscape of publishing in Australia, particularly focusing on print media. The conversation highlighted the diverse opinions among media planners and buyers regarding the relevance of print in today's world. Despite the challenges including industry restructures, ad revenue declines and environmental concerns, print media still holds a unique place for brands. Here are some key takeaways: Environmental Impact: While digital media might seem greener at first glance, it's essential to consider the continuous energy demands and e-waste issues it brings. Sustainable practices in paper sourcing, production, and recycling are crucial to minimising the environmental footprint of print media. Effectiveness of Print: Print media continues to thrive due to its credibility, engagement, targeted reach, and advertising impact. It remains a powerful medium, especially in niches like luxury and travel, where its tangible nature and high-quality presentation can make a significant impact. Coexistence of Media: The future of media lies in the balanced coexistence of print and digital platforms. This approach ensures a comprehensive media landscape that caters to diverse consumer needs and preferences. #PrintMedia

Paper is one of the most recycled materials you can get. Educating this to people though is more difficult. Lazy habits and lack of education deter many away from printed media, when it can be a strong contender to add into the mix with your media activity. Everyone should have a read of the great work Two Sides are doing to spread the word. https://twosides.info/
