How to save PAPER (How to save TREEs)?

_____________________________________________________________

3R is the best tool to do that.
1st R : Reduce
2nd R : Reuse
3rd R : Recycle

1. what is the need of "reduce" and how we can achieve that ?
#In the process of not using polythene bags we are using paper bags unnecessarily more. and the pity is that we are feeling ourselves ecofriendly by doing so.
what we should do then ? Dont we have Fabric bags at our home ? use them for shopping. while going out make habit of keeing one fabric bag (folded bad certainly will not take much of your space) with you.
#Good documentation is the key of saving papers. If you do it in hard copies then also if you document it properly no need to print everytime you need the same paper and if you can do it in soft properly ,I mean to say in your computer perhaps no need of printing even.
now this always happens with all of us, that while taking any print we knew that this is already taken but dont know where it is ? and we are taking again. we can minimise it.

2. How to do reuse? we can take back to back print outs, we all use rough pads at our work stations try to bunch your own void official prints and use the blank side of those or if they are in the good condition then even use them for printing.

3. How to help in recyling? any piece of paper should not go to dustbin. make habit of keeping one bag or bin at your home of in office where you can through any paper. instead of tearing of any paper just through it in that bin or bag. It will give you some 5-10 RS. at the month end and importantaly you channel them on the way of recycling by selling them to "scrap vendor" (KABADI).

3R is the very handy and practicle tool to save papers and to save our mother earth.

I inspired by one of my friend Jay's written topic, The topic is having some more statistical data related to paper use.
