2023, Ë¿¹ÏÊÓƵ commissioned Honeycomb Strategies to conduct a baseline
sustainability assessment of LAM's greenhouse emissions, water use, and waste
generated. The assessment will be released in the fourth quarter of 2024.

meets magazine industry standards for low-carbon-emission publishing and is
printed on Forest Stewardship Council (FSC)-certified paper.
