AWNA launches newspaper recycling ad campaign

The AWNA has consulted with industry and member newspapers on recycling efforts of newspapers throughout the province.

This is a proactive approach by the AWNA Board to counter possible government-imposed advertising campaigns experienced in other provinces. Although the Alberta government hasn’t expressed a desire for mandatory messages, it’s aware of imposed efforts elsewhere.

Results of the recycling consultation have been distilled into a number of advertisements promoting the benefits of recycling newspapers. Please consider including these when space permits.

These ads are part of a voluntary public information campaign sponsored by your newspaper and are not paid advertisements. In addition, we have included some blank versions, to allow each newspaper to add copy about their own local recycling efforts.
