In late October 2007, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency presented Quad/Graphics with an Environmental Excellence Award for its participation in the SmartWay(SM) Transport Partnership. The award recognizes Quad/Graphics' leadership in reducing emissions of air pollutants and greenhouse gases from its freight transport activities. In 2006 alone, Quad/Graphics prevented the emission of 11,878 tons of carbon dioxide -- the equivalent of taking 2,332 passenger cars off the road. It ... prevented the emission of 70.5 tons of nitrous oxide and 1.13 tons of particulate matter.
