I think that eBooks are better...no trees killed to make paper, no toxins from the inks, no transportation costs or packaging to recycle...
My carbon footprint is lower because I don't have to drive to the bookstore (miles away) and spend valuable time browsing the shelves, picking out my purchase and then driving back home. I save wear and tear on the car and gas money.
I can purchase my ebook at home w/o using anything more than a few cents worth of electricity. After I've read the book I can delete it or save it for future reading without having to dust it or find room on an already crowded set of bookshelves.
I will buy the Hard cover or paperback ONLY if there is no eBook available and then I usually donate it to the library so others can enjoy.
Just my $.02
