Every time you purchase an eBook or eChapter at iChapters.com, the online textbook retailer will plant a tree. The current tally? A whopping 46,291 tropical forest trees planted with the nonprofit organization Paso Pacifico.

The company also sells more than 10,000 print and digital study tools, with eBooks priced 50 percent below list price and eChapters starting at $1.99. Just one downside: eBooks don't make very comfy pillows when you're taking 40 winks during a late-night cram session. ::iChapters
