Save Paper-Save Tree!!!!!
It is amazing that after so much hype that Go Green initiatives in their various forms and avatars have got, the results of entire exercise has been near nil.
Though we know about the impact our action can create, we actually continue doing the same actions with same non chalant attitude !
It is simply a matter of "choice"! we have the power to control most of our choices and, therefore,the impact we create, from where we live to what we buy, eat, and use the light our homes to how we use ours natural resources.
It the time we put ours thinking caps to brainstorm for the ways to contribute toward saving our mother earth.Take for instance our easy going attitude toward paper. Paper plays important role in ours lives. The newspaper , cereal box, shopping bags, the tissue paper, toilet paper, books, magazines, labels; it almost omnipresent.
When paper is such intense part of ours lives and we know trees need to be cut down to make it, why not be more judicious while using it.
It takes about 24 trees to make a tons of paper and the paper industry ranks 4th in contributing the greenhouse gas emissions, and contribute about 9% of manufacturing sector's carbon emissions.
Paper usage is rising by around 20% every year,with the average office worker using approximately 50 sheets of paper every day in typical offices.
Yes, use of paper is unavoidable but we are sure make a difference towards environment based on how responsible we use it.Paper accounts for more than half of all municipal solid waste.Saving paper will decrease waste going for dump in the outskirts which in turn will reduces pollution, energy usage in production, transportation and recycling new paper product and also majority reduce the cutting of trees to make new paper.
Some following ways can bring much change and can save our mother earth:-

* Watch out for the excessive use of paper. Most of companies strives to make a paperless environment , but hardly succeed because the employees do

    The procurement of trees can occur either when rights are sold to cut down trees on land that is set to be urbanized or when commercial tree farms are sowed, grown, cut, resowed on the same land. Both means take energy, but the former takes a more natural, less energy intensive path, while the latter takes more energy input from the use of fossil fuels to power the machines to plant, sow and maintain the tree farms. Once the trees are felled, requiring energy input, it is converted to pulp. The transformation of tree chips into pulp and then paper is an energy intensive endeavor, taking fossil fuel inputs to form and shape the paper into a specific product. Some paper products take more processing in order to obtain the final product. Paper that needs to be white, undergoes a bleaching process, taking an input of chemicals and more fossil fuels, which may lead to the contamination of water resources. Once the final paper product is produced, it needs to be moved to market, which again is fossil fuel intensive. The use of diesel, oil and gasoline is not only used to transport the paper product but also used by the consumer of to move the paper product to its final destination. Lastly, once the paper product is no longer needed it is either put into in a landfill or it begins a recycling phase, which uses fossil fuels to move the waste paper and then transform it back into a pulp.…

    Waste In Canada

    As humanity develops new technology, the magnitude and severity of waste increases. When computers were developed, it widely was believed that the need for paper would be eliminated. On the contrary this was widely proven false and we are now utilizing more paper than ever. Canada is not an exception as the typical Canadian generates an average of three pounds of solid waste each day1. This alone shows what a careless species we have become- using and disposing materials without even considering the damage we are causing. With half a trillion tones of waste around the world, only 25% may be reused for a second or third time and less than 5% can be renewed limitlessly1. These facts are true only in developed countries. Since these traditional…
