Due to compression systems in landfills to reduce garbage space, the air needed for paper to break down is removed.
Not only does this mean paper does not biodegrade in just weeks as commonly believed; it releases methane gas, a powerful greenhouse gas with four times the impact of carbon dioxide, making an even greater environmental hazard.
Paper is often regarded as the lesser of two evils next to plastics. While it is important to reduce single-use plastics, we need to remember that paper comes from trees - the natural resource that forms the basis of sustaining life on earth.
Trees not only produce oxygen, but they absorb carbon dioxide from the atmosphere, thus slowing the rate of global warming and climate change.
So why shouldn't we minimise use of tree-based products to protect this vitally crucial natural resource?
This highlights the importance of reducing and reusing BEFORE recycling.
Recycling needs many natural resources, including water and energy. It is vital we reuse what we can before we have to resort to recycling.
It is also this ethos that drives the Paper Saver and our mission to help reduce waste and reuse the paper made from our precious natural resources.
