BEST Sustainability Tip of the Week: Did you know that recycling one ton of paper saves 17 trees - amounting to 4,100 kilowatts of energy - enough to run the average home for six months!? It's easy to start a paper recycling program. Put an empty paper box in each office and copier/printing area. Many local recycling companies will pay for white paper or at least haul it for free. Learn more at FurmanBEST.biz.
