2. why go green?
Take a minute to look around the room you're in and notice how many things are
made out of paper. There may be books, a few magazines, some printer paper, and
perhaps a poster on the wall.
The fact is, world consumption of paper has grown 400% in the
last 40 years. Now nearly 35% of the total trees cut around the
world are used in paper industries on every continent. Besides
what you can see around you, paper comes in many forms from
envelopes to cardboard packaging to printers to scanners to
electrical plugs. In short, paper is everywhere.
did you know?
Rainforests are most obviously a source of wood, cut to make timber or pulped to
produce paper & packaging. Global trade in tropical timber is valued at approximately
$16 billion, of which half is exported to China, to be turned into the furniture,
flooring & paper. The bulk of this is harvested unsustainably and/or illegally.
Over half the world’s plant and animal species are found in the rain forests.
15 million hectares of tropical forests are lost every year - an area larger than the size of
England.
Over 40% of trees cut in British Columbia are used to produced paper.
Rainforests once covered 14% of the earth's land surface; now they cover a mere 6% &
experts estimate that the remaining rainforests could be consumed in less than 40 years.

3. what can you do?
There’s a number of small things you can do which can make a huge
difference.
Recycle
We’re told to do it all the time. Yet most of us still don't do it.
Reduce your printing.
According to a recent report almost 70% of paper sheets printed by office workers in a year
are "wasted or unnecessary".
