RECYCLE YOUR PAPER
WHILE 2007 SAW A RECORD 56% OF PAPER CONSUMED IN THE US RECOVERED FOR
RECYCLING, THERE IS STILL QUITE SOME WAY TO GO TO CATCH UP WITH COUNTRIES
LIKE GERMANY, HOLLAND OR SWEDEN.
PRICES FOR WASTE DISPOSAL ARE RISING AND GOVERNMENT LEGISLATION IS
TIGHTENING, TWO GOOD REASONS TO IMPROVE YOUR RECYCLING PRACTICES NOW…
QUITE APART FROM THE ENVIRONMENTAL ADVANTAGES; ONE TON OF WASTE PAPER
RECYCLED REPRESENTS A SAVING OF 15 TREES, 2.5 BARRELS OF CRUDE OIL, TWO-AND-
A-QUARTER CUBIC METERS OF LANDFILL SPACE, AND 27 KILOS OF AIR POLLUTANTS.
