We are currently in a world where it is inconceivable to run a business with no paper copy, but ten years ago the general public could not conceive watching TV over the Internet, let alone on your phone. I think if the brand is strong enough it should be powerfull whatever media it utilizes.

Yes you can. It does depend on your product. So local business might not. But for online business you can reach a celling of seo and ppc that print radio and tv can add too. But they can be more about branding value. When online is about sales value.

It has to come down to each individual green policy. We must learn to survive without print.

Remember the 'Paperless Office'? Well, we seem to be printing more stuff on paper today than ever before. Why? There's a printer on virtually every desk or office.
Remember when TV was going to make radio obsolete. Well today, radio is as strong a medium as ever.
