Take a look in your paper recycling bin (or your garbage can, for that matter). Chances are you've got paper with a clean useable side in there. One of the biggest impacts we can have is by REDUCING the amount of paper we use. Besides double siding, N-up printing, decreasing margin width, and single spacing, we can save paper by RE-USING existing paper. It sounds simple, but there is NO FORMAL way to do so. We have developed a set of bins that are designed to facilitate the collection and storage of paper with one clean side to it (OSC paper ). We are conducting a one year pilot study, beginning June 1, 2005, and evaluations at the end of the summer, fall, and spring semesters. Bins are being distributed to different areas of campus, and the use of the bins will be monitored. Where possible, we are also monitoring purchasing trends.
