Next Steps
If 1 ton paper was used in this binder, in comparison to virgin paper, our ecological footprint would be reduced by:
o 17 mature treeso 1,081 lb. of solid wastes o 10,196 gallons of water o 6.9 lb. of suspended particles in the
watero 2,098 lb. of air emissionso 2,478 cubic feet of natural gas
Toner = large % vegetable extract
