What's better for the environment: Books or Ebooks?

Well, Ebooks sound like the thing to go for, what with cutting down trees, but there are other factors to look at.
-Charging the Iphone's battery will consume more electricity
-People's addiction to technology will grow, and I heard excessive use of it will harm users through radiation or addiction
-Books are already too expensive for billions of children to buy and use, electronics that will, in a way, "kill" paper books will make literature even harder to achieve
-Book businesses, both big and small, will be ruined
-Books, after being used too much, can be recycled, right?
-Bookcovers are more beautiful in life than in bytes.

I think ebooks would be better if you like books that much, as long as you have an iPhone or a kindle to read them on.

um i think ebooks

Oxygen.

umm..
books are not good for trolls but good for those people who want education and want to study but books need paper to manufacture and paper need trees..and books give us knowledge that plant more trees in place of old ones...so books r good for environment and also for humans...b,coz without books anyone don,t know that what are disadvantage of cutting trees and why should we plant trees...:D

Ebooks may be , but they slowly destroy your sight.Reading hundreads of pages on a screen , which emits radiation.
