So clueless. Have you ever worked at book store? Do you know what happens to unsold inventory? Why don't you look it up? Just because you have a precious book or two you love so much and will cherish forever (well, until you die and your family throws them all away), it doesn't mean that particular book is special in any way. In order for your own copy to get into your grubby little hands, at least a dozen more were printed and destroyed. Something like 77 million unsold books destroyed per year. The waste is mind boggling and in today's world, completely unnecessary. Personally, I like my text on a screen and my trees in the ground as living plants, not landfill.
