SAVE PAPER

    Print and photocopy on both sides of the paper.

    Make sure your office machines are able to print or copy on both sides.

    Use e-mail whenever you can and only print out if absolutely necessary.

     Review drafts and include comments on screen, and return them electronically.

    Print drafts at a smaller scale (more than one page per side).

    Use overhead projectors and white boards in meetings instead of paper handouts.

    Order supplies by e-mail.

    Use internet publishing and electronic forms to reduce paper copies.

    Order all supplies in bulk to minimize packaging waste.

     Ensure paper stocks aren’t stored in damp or humid conditions as this can cause jamming in machines and paper wastage.

    Set targets for reducing the paper your office uses and try to achieve them.
