I agree the environment is important. I agree that waste is not good. However, the transparency of a person's motivations in complaining about the "wastefulness" of the creation and distribution of a mere 100,000-issue run of experimental magazines I find to be rather disgusting. Innovation requires a certain amount of waste, and I really doubt that the creation of these magazines is making starving children cry.

The true hallmarks of the 21st century are sustainability and efficiency ~ developing technology that allows us to do more with less, to eliminate exactly the kind of wasteful processes by which the Esquire cover came to be. How ironic that in trying to make a statement on our times, they've undermined the very principles that will move us forward! Agreed!
