The environmental impact of paper books versus digital books is complex. Paper books require trees and energy, while digital books need electronic devices, which involve mining and e-waste. Paper books have a visible immediate footprint, but e-readers can reduce physical resource use over time. Both have trade-offs, and the best choice depends on usage habits and device lifecycles.

Electronic devices used for reading e-books contribute to electronic waste, which can be harmful if not properly recycled.
