Recycling in the Office
- Make two sided copies. Save paper at the copy machine
and space in your filing cabinet.
- Distribute memos and drafts through e-mail instead of
making copies.
- Reuse envelopes for campus mail.
- Print short memos on half sheets of paper.
- Route memos and subscriptions.
- Purchase supplies made from recycled materials --
complete the loop!
- Use the back of scrap paper to print draft copies of
reports.

Recycling in Class
- Use two sided copies for handouts and exams.
- Submit assignments electronically.
- Use notebooks completely before recycling them.

Recycling at Home
- Bring your own container to the grocery store and buy
goods in bulk.
- Buy products made from recycled material that come in
recyclable containers.
- Pack your lunch in reusable containers.
- Build a compost pile.
- Donate unused clothing and household items to community
organizations.

General Tips
- Use your own mug - it saves paper cups and money.
- Bring your own bag when you go to the store. (If
everyone in the U.S. reused their grocery bags just once, 60,000 trees would be saved.)
- Use one paper towel instead of two to dry your hands.
Reduce, Reuse, Recycle!
