Seems great idea! Isn’t it?

But, how?

Reduce Printing

Avoid Printing of papers unnecessarily.

Encourage use of soft copy.

How much paper do we use?

In India, average paper consumption is 8-10kg per person per year.

World average is 30-35kg paper per person per year.

developed countries of 400-500kg.

Why?

Indians are very conservative by nature.

In India strongly believe that

“Nothing Should be Wasted”

Trees & papers

Trees are being cut to make paper.

Leads to environmental damage.

Paper from others…

In India, mostly papers are made either from waste paper, or from agricultural residues e.g. bagasse, rice straw etc.?

Indian Paper from wood

In INDIA wood is used only for less than 8-10% of paper.

In any paper there are less than 10% chances that a tree had to be cut to make paper.

Captive Plantation

Plantation of trees by Paper mills.

Required by them after say 8 or 10 years.

SAVE WOOD

On a rough estimate, we use at least 8-10 times wood for furniture than paper.

NEED Vs. GREED

Care for environment.The earth has sufficient for

everybody’s need.But, not for everybody’s

GREED.

Please…
