D.S. Boyes,
I question the need for the magazine to be wrapped in plastic for mailing. It’s a bit like an F&B or Greenpeace sticker on a motorcar.
The journal is flow-wrapped in low-density polyethylene, a 100 percent recyclable material produced as a by-product during the refining of petroleum. Some years ago the Forest and Bird Executive agreed this was less wasteful than using paper envelopes which also allow the Journal to get wet during delivery.
