11 Ways to Save Trees
People use way too much paper. Most of it comes in the form of junk in the mailbox. Although it’s great to have important information on paper, some things are probably just taking up unnecessary space. Right? Computers are all around us, yet we still use a lot of paper.
I use paper for notes when I could easily just use my computer, since these notes are just going to be tossed anyway. Microsoft OneNote would be a great way to store notes.
Here is a list of 11 ways to save trees:
- Opt-out from unwanted catalogs, magazines and other junk mail, e.g. credit card offers.
- Opt-out of paper bills and start paying bills online.
- If you must print, use both sides of paper. And, print the printer friendly version.
- Borrow books from the library or friends that will only be read once. Not only will this help trees, but it will save you money. Or try using e-book readers.
- Reuse notepaper until it is used completely on both sides.
- Recycle your newspapers.
- Get involved.
- Use GreenPrint.
- Use Webster’s USB New World Dictionary. [Product page] Or, there’s also Merriam-Webster USB Dictionary/Thesaurus.
- Subscribe to Website Magazine for free and a tree will be planted on your behalf.
- Or we could just grow Hemp?

i think another way to save trees is to bring cloth bags to stores and use them instead of paper or plastic.
