Reduce the use of Paper and Save Tree

by Kushal Naharki | 17-04-2018 18:41 recommendations 0

Around the world, we use 1 million tons of paper every day and 93% of paper comes from trees alone. Paper also accounts major portion of the municipal solid waste. The pulp and paper industry is the third largest consumer of energy and uses more water to produce than any other industry and is one of the world?s major greenhouse gas emitters.
Producing one ton of paper requires 2-3 times its weight in trees.Making paper from recycled content rather than virgin fiber creates 74 percent less water pollution. Reducing the use of paper also saves money. So, we need to save trees by reducing the use of paper. Too much of paper usage is wasteful and unnecessary and puts huge paper on the environment.Some of the ways to reduce the use of paper and save trees are:
1.School campaigns can be conducted to aware school children awaring them about importance of reducing the use of papers.
2.We need to thick before we print.
3.We can use electronic media like emails instead of using papers.
4.Recycling of the papers help to reduce the wastes being produced and reduces the demand of tree for making papers.
5.Let?s use both side of paper for printing.Let?s reduce the use of paper and ?save trees?
 
save tree, save paper

    Hello Kushal, school is where students can learn primary principles that can be adopted when we go out into societies. As you said, preliminary education is really important for them to develop their rationale for reducing use of papers.
    What I did in my school was to sell handkerchiefs to my classmates, so they would not gonna use tissue and pulps used to make tissue!
    What else can be more if you do plan to provide a project like this one in your school?! :)

    Thanks for the suggestions, I also think the use of electronic media will go a long way to reduce the use of paper since we are in a technological world.
