Hey world! Did you know that 38.2% of our total waste is from paper and paperboard?
I remember when I was a little girl, I used to help my Dad haul all of our collected newspapers to the neighborhood school every few months for a paper drive. I wonder why we don't see paper drives as much anymore.
No one is being stopped from allowing this tradition to come back. I think it would be great to carry on this tradition, recycle newspapers, raise some money for your school, organization, and help the environment in the process. Yesterday's news can soon be tomorrow's news.

  1. I have never heard of a paper drive. I think we should have one! Especially because of all the Daily Wild Cat papers found in the classrooms after class!

  2. I really like the idea that this will end up in the trash and you can see that by just looking at the condition of the paper.
