One step forward in paper saving



Folks,

Last month was really successful in implementing the Paper saving techniques in my personal and work routine. Just wanted to inform you some ways which I practiced last month to easily save paper and help the earth become greener.

1. I used to take 5-6 tissue papers everyday in the canteen, most of them were unnecessary. I reduced it to only 2 per day and thus saving 4 tissues per day. means 100 tissues per month and 1200 tissues per year. I asked my group (4 others) also to follow it dedicatedly. Now you can sum it up and imagine the figure.

2. Since one month I am using only sticky notes on my desktop as a reminder and thus saving 5 small sheets per day. You can also download TK8 sticky notes for free.

3. I used to take atleast 70-80 A4 print-outs every month for checking purpose most of the time. And guess what. This month most of the time I have done checking the drawings or ppts on the screen itself. I hardly took 10 prints this month if I remember correctly. It was so easy.

4. I cleared most of the paper waste around me (Old unnecessary papers in files and drawers etc.) and sent them immediately to recycling chain instead of keeping it with me. Now my place looks cleaner and paper free.

See how easy it is to save paper without compromising your work and life. All you have to do is to stay focused.

Stay Green......

I use one side blank west papers to write my personal notes and other reminder papers.
Like this I have followed the paper saving program. Now I am writing direct on PC instead of paper and PC
