Sony goes greener: Revises DVD packaging

Starting with “Paul Blart: Mall Cop,” Sony will be going more green with its DVD and Blu-ray packaging.

The packaging for the home video version of “Paul Blart” will use only 80% of the plastic that is currently used. Recycled paper will be used for the box art. Even the shrink wrap used will be lighter. Oh, and there won’t be a cardboard sleeve, either. All of this means a more green package.

A greener package is also a lighter one. Sony will probably be able to cut shipping costs to help out their bottom line. Maybe this will help them get out of the mess they’ve been in for a while now.
