10 Easy Tips for Reducing Your Daily Paper Waste<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
People often forget how often they encounter paper and paper
products during the dayâthis includes books, newspapers, toilet
paper, cereal boxes, the labels on water bottles, catalogs, junk mail, money,
parking tickets, receipts, napkins, and the list goes on. Consuming more than
any other country per capita, the average American uses more than 700
lbs of paper per year.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
The following are a few important facts about the paper
companies and the paper industry you should take into consideration before
buying or using any paper products.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Did you know that forests store approximately half of the
earthâs âterrestrial carbonâ? These carbon rich
forests counter the pollution that causes global warming.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Unfortunately, half of the earthâs
existing forests have been used up, cleared, or burnedâmore than half of
whatâs left is severely degraded.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Each year, a massive amount of wood is harvested for
consumptionâapproximately 40% of this wood is used
for papermaking.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Used paper makes up approximately 25% of all landfill waste.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Paper companies in the United States (and the paper
industry) are the 4th largest contributor of harmful greenhouse gas emissions.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
If office paper use was reduced by 10%, approximately 1.5
million tons of greenhouse gases could be prevented. Thatâs equivalent to the emissions of 280,000 cars.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Why choose recycle paper? Compared to processing virgin
wood, recycled paper uses 45% less energy, 40% less greenhouse gas emissions,
40% less particulate emissions, 50% less solid waste, 50% less wastewater, and
no natural resources or wood.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
In previous years, less than half the amount of used office
paper (43%) was recycled.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
The following are easy tips for saving or reusing paper
brought to you by a recycled paper company.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
1. Be a âpost-consumerâ
consumerâbuy recycled paper, recycle paper products (i.e. toilet
paper, paper towels) and avoid purchasing any goods or products made from
virgin wood.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
2. Donât buy paper table
napkinsâcloth is a more environmentally friendly choice.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
3. Donât use Styrofoam peanuts
for packaging.Shred used office paper and use that as an alternative.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
4. Use dish towels regularly, not paper towels.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
5. Change your computer settings before printing any
documentsâprint to both sides to save paper.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
6. Paying bills online is not only more convenient, it saves
paper. Take advantage of your car insurance, cable company, rent, health
insurance, and other âecobillâ options.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
7. If you bring your lunch to work in a paper bag, reuse
it!Better yet, opt for a cloth bag you can reuse and wash time and time again.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
8. If you have a pooch, purchase biodegradable doggie bags.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
9. Buy all desk planners, wall calendars, and paper office
supplies from a recycled paper company.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
10. Paper or plastic? Say no to both at the grocery store.
Purchase a reusable cloth bag and use that for carrying groceries home.<o:p></o:p></div>

How To Make Smarter Business Decisions: 3 Easy Ways to
Upgrade Your Office Environment<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Many businesses have discovered they not only have an
important commitment to the world around them but that thereâs a lot to be gained financially from implementing green office
initiatives.More than ever, companies are paying attention to their
environmental impact and making changes, some starting from the ground up,
others taking small steps to creating a more environmentally friendly
workplace. No matter the type of business you have or the industry youâre in, there are easy and affordable ways to make very
important environmental changes thatâll mean positive
results for your bottom line, as well as the environment. This article
discusses easy ways companies can create a green office environment.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Recycled Paper in the Workplace:<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Approximately 10,000 sheets of paper are used by a single US
office worker in a year.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Nearly 95% of this paper will be thrown away, not recycled.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
In this decade alone, itâs
estimated that Americans will throw away more then 4 million tons of office
paperâand 10 million tons of newspaper as well. All this material is
recyclable. This paper could make a 12â wall from New York to the state of
California.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
One ton of recycled paper can save almost 4,000 pounds of
lumber and nearly 25,000 gallons of water.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Recycling one ton of paper uses 64% less energy, 50% less
water, 75% less air pollution, and saves approximately 17 trees.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Itâs not hard to create a green
office environment.The following steps are easy ways to upgrade equipment and
supplies to encourage a greener workplace and home office.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
New and Efficient Office Equipment:<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
It may be time to invest in new office equipmentâolder models use far more energy then modern alternatives.
Consider office copiers, fax machines, and other equipment with Energy Star
labels. When you purchase green office supplies and equipment, youâll use less power and have longer lasting equipment. Itâs also a
good idea to buy a digital copier that also functions as a scanner,
printer, and fax machine. If you can purchase office equipment that is
versatile, youâll safe space and money.<o:p></o:p></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Recycle Paper: Go Paperless<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Itâs a good idea to start using document
management software and move away from paper filing thatâs been popular for decades. Itâs now easy to scan documents or
save them as PDFs and other types of filesâthis makes those documents
accessible to many individuals, and available whenever you need them.
Using document management software as an alternative to paper is useful in many
work environments. If this solution doesnât work,
recycled paper products such as desk pads, computer paper, recycled calendars,
and other similar supplies are a great choice.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Recycle Paper and Upgrade Your Bathroom:<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
There are many easy green substitutes to be made to an
office bathroom to reduce water usage and energy, as well as consumption of
paper products.Motion sensors in lighting fixtures, automatic flushing devices,
and sink water controls will all reduce water and energy consumption.Using
recycle paper towels and recycled toilet paper is a great alternative to the
regular product, and investing in a cold jet air dryer is a paperless solution.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Those are a few suggestions for green office
innovation.Learn more about other green office initiatives and create a
workplace you and colleagues can be proud of.<o:p></o:p></div>

Solving the Plastic Bag Pandemic: Natureworks Biodegradable
Plastics and Trash Bags<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Did you know that itâs
estimated that the world uses approximately 1 trillion, 500 billion plastic
bags a year? Thatâs equivalent to almost 1 million plastic bags every minute.
Per family, thatâs 60 bags per every 4 trips to the grocery store.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
One of the most problematic issues with our modern world is
the accumulation of non-biodegradable trash, specifically plastic bags like
grocery bags and shopping bags made of polyethylene. These bags are very
popularâapproximately four in every five bags handed
out at grocery stores are of the plastic variety. Because these plastic
shopping bags are handed out abundantly and are rarely recycled, they end up in
landfills and municipal trash incinerators. Plastic garbage bags, trash bags,
and shopping bags are non-biodegradable and wonât break
down easily in the natural environment. Under ideal circumstances, high-density
plastic bags take approximately 20 years to degrade. However, in normal
circumstances or less than ideal circumstances, a bag can take as long
as 1,000 years to fully disintegrate.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Paper bags arenât much better.In
some ways are even worse than plastic.The manufacture of paper bags creates 50
times as much water pollutants and global warming gases. 90% less electrical
energy is required to recycle plastic than the equivalent weight in
paper. Additionally, paper grocery bags break down most easily in commercial or
municipal composting programs.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Natureworks PLA or corn based âplasticsâ
are one example of an alternative to traditional plastic trash bags and
shopping bags. Biodegradable bags such as these are ideal for retail settings,
offices, at home, or as a substitute for any non-environmentally friendly
plastic bag.Natureworks plastic products and other biodegradable plastics are
made from biopolymers, like polylactic acid that can be transformed into
anything from clothing fibers, packaging materials, food containers, and a
variety of other products. Natureworks bio-plastics are one such example of a
plastic thatâs derived from 100% renewable,
yellow corn resources and can contribute to reduced greenhouse gas
emissions.Biodegradable trash bags vary in the amount of time they take to
degrade, but most break down in 3 to 6 months in good landfill
conditions.Unlike petroleum based, conventional plastics, bio-plastics do not
contribute to the toxicity of landfills or incinerator stack emissions.Equally
important, if bio-based plastics are littered, they donât degrade
into toxic particles that then pollute nearby bodies of water, wildlife, soil,
and other sensitive environments.<o:p></o:p></div>

Uses for Biodegradable Plastic Bags: Natureworks Plastic and
Trash Bags<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Replacing traditional non-biodegradable trash bags in the
kitchen, home, and office, and cleaning up pooch poop and cat litter are good
uses for compostable plastic and trash bags. Take the time to learn more about
plastic bags and trash bags made from natural plastic and fibers and find out
if theyâd be a benefit to your home and office and
reduce landfill waste.<o:p></o:p></div>

Why Using Recycled Toner Cartridges Greatly Helps the
Environment<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
When the LaserJet computer printer was introduced by
Hewlett-Packard in 1984 it was sold with an "all-in-one" toner
cartridge. This toner cartridge seemed like a great idea until the empty
cartridges started to cause environmental concerns.Today it is estimated that
over 300 million plastic recycled toner cartridges are thrown away yearly in
the United States and elsewhere around the world. Each toner cartridge weighs
approximately 3-1/2 to 4 pounds, which means that the total weight of
cartridges discarded is equivalent to over 67,000 Ford Explorers! Fortunately
today most cartridge manufacturers have established capturing programs for the
empty cores but the story doesn't end there. Investigations into the
destination of these captured cartridges found that many are exported into
Asian countries where workers under primitive conditions clean and prepare the
empties for recycling.See article here.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Interestingly up to 97% of the materials that make up a
toner cartridge can be recycled or reused.That's why domestic recycling or remanufacturing
of toner and ink cartridges is the best solution.By reusing recycled toner
cartridges, non-renewable resources are conserved and the environmental impacts
associated with the manufacturing process are greatly reduced.The reason that
many business offices resist remanufactured toner cartridges is because of
quality concerns.However, the quality of professionally remanufactured toners
has dramatically increased over the past decade and most reputable
manufacturers and dealers will 100% guarantee the performance of their
remanufactured toner products.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Should a green office use recycled toners? Yes, and you'll
save money too!<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Some Toner Cartridge Facts<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Toner cartridges take between 500-1000 years to decompose in
a landfill.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
The plastic in each toner cartridge takes about 3.5 quarts
of oil to produce.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
The number of toner cartridges thrown out increased by 12
percent in the last year.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Anti-trust laws prevent office machine maintenance companies
from excluding remanufactured toners in their maintenance contracts.<o:p></o:p></div>

Buying Organic Coffee Wholesale: Why Make The Switch to
Organic Coffee<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Did you know that coffee is the most heavily chemically
treated food commodity in the world?<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
When coffee is produced, synthetic petroleum-based
fertilizers are frequently used to protect the crop and ward off bugs and other
pests. However, these chemicals leech into the soil, destroying its fertility
and ability to grow future healthy plants.The chemical laden water runoff gets
into adjacent water supplies, polluting local drinking water.Coffee beans grown
quickly in the sun for mass production require chemical fertilizers as theyâre meant to make up for lost nutrients, as the coffee is grown in
less then optimal conditions. Soil erosion and lack of naturally occurring
ânitrogen fixingâ plants, such as legumes make
these pesticides necessary.Because of the full on sun conditions and lack of
shade trees,chemicals are necessary to control the large amount of insects,
which would normally be eliminated by birds. However, no birds choose to
live in the inhospitable treeless full-on sun climate of a coffee farm.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Organic Coffee = Less Deforestation<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Buying organic coffee wholesale can help contribute to less
deforestation.Naturally, coffee trees grow in the shade of dense rainforests.In
order to maximize productivity and get the most out of the crop, the coffee
industry developed bean hybrids that are âsun
resistantâ, and this type of coffee now represents more then 70% of the
global coffee market. To make room for these new shade resistant, extra
productive trees, vast expanses of the rainforest are being cleared to make
room for our morning coffee habit.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Buy Organic Coffee Wholesale: Taste the Difference<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
We think organic, shade grown coffee just tastes better, too.By
nature, the coffee plant produces better tasting and better quality beans when
grown slowly and naturally in the shade of the rainforest.As the demand for
coffee increases,high productivity techniques developed, but coffee quality has
diminished and the market has become flooded with low quality beans and cheaper

Recycled Toilet Paper: The Easiest Way To Be Environmentally
Conscious<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
No matter how much of an effort youâre making
to be green, some of the easiest ways to be environmentally conscious are often
overlooked. Next time you venture into the bathroom, examine your toilet paper.
Thereâs a huge chance that the toilet paper youâre using is made from treesâtrees from the last virgin forests of
North America.<o:p></o:p></div>

Is using âregularâ toilet
paper really as bad as driving a Hummer?<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Consider this: If every household in the USA replaced only a
single roll of virgin fiber toilet paper with one made from 100% recycled post
consumer waste, we could save almost 424,000 trees.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Buying recycled toilet paper for your home or office is one
of the easiest ways to avoid contributing to destructive environmental
processes. Napkins, paper towels, tissues, and toilet paper are all one-time
usage only products, so it makes sense to purchase recycled versions of these
products and avoid contributing to more waste. If not, paper giants such as
Kimberly-Clark are forced to source from virgin forests that are ecologically
valuable.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Recycled toilet paper is a product that has high
post-consumer content. Post consumer products have a high content of recycled
materialâpaper in this case that would have otherwise
gone to a landfill or burned up in an incinerator. Other non-recycled
toilet paper products also have been put through a harsh bleaching process with
harmful chemicals like chlorine to give them a white and bright appearance. The
chlorine and chemicals end up either in our water supply or in the air and can
be harmful to fish, animals, and humans as well. Recycled toilet paper should
be chlorine free (TCF) or processed chlorine-free (PCF).<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Unfortunately, recycled toilet paper has a reputation for
not holding up to regular brands when it comes to comfortâand thatâs something that most Americans are unwilling to
compromise on. Recycled toilet paper represents only 2% of the TP sold in the
US market, but in Europe and Latin America it stands at 20%.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Recycled toilet paper might not be the softest toilet paper
youâve ever tried, but seriously consider whether
or not itâs worth turning the remaining forests of North America into the
most disposable of products.<o:p></o:p></div>
