The other day I opened at work, which, even though I much prefer it, is something I almost never do - in the morning though they always make an 'opening announcement', which consist of: yesterday's sales vs same-time-last-year sales, safety message and [the only part I really listen to] the environmental message. 9 out of 10 times they aren't that impressive... but this particular message surprised me:
"If everyone recycled their sunday newspapers, we would save a half-million trees each week".
That's a crap load of trees for one week - and especially just one paper. Which reminded me of this website... this company uses non-wood materials to make paper that looks, feels, and acts exactly like paper made from wood. Apparently companies like Nike, Mitsubishi Motors and Staples are using their stuff... along with the University of Oregon and the Red Hot Chili Peppers. I guess it's a start.
