- <p> THE GREENING OF A BEST SELLER. If further proof were needed
- that ecoconsciousness is skyrocketing, consider the case of 50
- Simple Things You Can Do to Save the Earth, a slim paperback
- book that provides its reader with tips on how to protect the
- environment. Published in November by Berkeley's EarthWorks
- Press, the book had a first printing of 26,000 copies, which
- sold out within days. The 75,000 copies from the second and
- third printings are also being quickly gobbled up. The only
- obstacle to even larger printings: author John Javna will only
- allow the book to be printed on recycled paper, a scarce
- commodity in bulk quantity.
