Thanks penguin.

Looking at the Oxford Green Print website (I hadn't realised who was
giving us a quotation), I think that's a great way to go. It's the same
process as footprint use, as far as I can see. I would be AGAINST
getting multiple quotations for the work because that's capitalist
market nonsense; If we have a quotation that we're all happy with on
ethical and environmental grounds, and can afford (we said we could in
the meeting) then we should take it and not waste other people's time.
