Green Tips for Readers!Save paper and recycle more!In few simple steps you can save a lot of paper at school and at home: Write on two sides of the paper in your notebooks. Keep scrap paper for notes. Use old wrapping paper to cover your textbooks - this way you help both to reduce waste and to keep your books in good condition. (And it doesn’t have to be boring! Use colored pencils to give your covers fun designs.) Getting rid of old notebooks you don’t need anymore? put them in the recycle bin instead of the garbage bin. Encourage your school to go paperless - for example, sending updates and information on school events via email instead of letters. Use more school supplies made of recycled materials! Going to school requires a lot of paper-made supplies. Now it’s easier and more affordable to use more notebooks, folders, and binders, and fillers that are made of recycled paper. These products can be found with many retailers. Choose processed chlorine free (PCF) paper and the highest percentage of recycled post-consumer waste (PCW) available
