US website Chegg.com provides a revolutionary online textbook rental service, offering over two million used books and 800,000 new book titles for students to rent, rather than buy. Now they have announced the launch of a new program - “Chegg for Trees” that will ensure that a tree is planted in a needy area every time a textbook is rented via the Textbookflix.com service. Chegg is delivering this program in partnership with the newly founded Eco-Libris, an organization that seeks to balance out the trees cut down for the production of books by planting trees in developing countries.
