Importance of Recycling Office Paper:

When paper is disposed of in landfill rather than recycled, it creates methane as it breaks down. Methane is a major greenhouse gas that contributes to global warming with a life span 21 times longer than carbon dioxide. Source: VISY

Manufacturing recycled paper can use up to 90% less water and 50% less energy than making it from trees. Source: Sustainability Victoria
