Paper Waste

Typical business offices generate about 1.5 pounds of waste paper per employee per day.
Recycling one ton of paper typically saves $15 to $30 in landfill disposal costs (in 1989 dollars) and about 6.7 cubic yards of landfill space.
Commercial and residential paper waste accounts for over 40 percent of waste currently being landfilled. Eliminating paper from waste would almost double the lives of current landfills.
Every recycled ton of paper saves approximately 17 trees, which is then available for other uses, and approximately 462 gallons of oil. Recycling paper also reduces the air and water pollution due to paper manufacturing.

Reduce your waste by creating and sending electronic documents whenever possible. Recycle paper products used in your office, and make it a priority to buy recycled paper to complete the cycle.
