The problem is that it's very difficult to assess the TOTAL environmental impact of a product. Yes, you can assess the "carbon footprint" of something, but given the fact that both paper making and making electronic devices are nasty, polluting industries, how do you weigh the impact of one against the other?
Personally I don't buy readers because I think they are better for the environment, but because they let me carry around lots of books at once.
