WGO is pleased to present the first issue of the combined E-Newsletter and WGN: the electronic World Gastroenterology News, e-WGN, assembled under the guidance of the new co-editors Henry J. Binder and Greger Lindberg.

WGO offers our readers this electronic publication which will save over six metric tonnes of paper per issue, equivalent to 144 trees. Decreasing our use of paper will help to slow climate change, conserve natural habitats, contribute to cleaner air and ultimately improve the quality of health and life for all.

Thank you for your support of this important effort.
