Paper Chase: Tackling Companies’ Wasteful Printing Habits
Have you ever considered how many kinds of paper we use and handle every day?
Newspaper, office-printed paper, tickets, bills, banknotes, receipts, books, napkins, bags, food packaging, toilet paper, and health certificates (especially during the Covid-19 pandemic) are some of the common paper-based products we hardly give a second thought to.
As of 2018, the total global production of paper and cardboard was about 420 million tons per year, but this amount is expected to rise.
