Here is the exciting part of the blog where you can start to have a personal impact! Remember not to pressure yourself, it’s not easy to cut paper out of your life with a snap of your fingers. All my written notes for this blog can testify to that!

Figure 1. You got this. (Zentz, 2017)

Simple everyday actions:

• Don’t get a receipt when withdrawing money from a cash point/atm
• Recycle paper whenever and wherever you can
• Only consume what you need
• Think before you print! If you have to then:
  • Print on both sides
  • Use environmentally friendly paper
• Use more technology! (they can’t all be boring solutions)
  • Write that shopping list on your phone
  • Hand in that work assignment via email
  • Buy that textbook online (or download if you must –> piracy>deforestation)
  • Read newspapers online
  • Cloud-based sharing sites like Dropbox, Google Docs etc. Allow easy communication.
• Tell your friends to do the same!
• Maybe even tell them about this blog? 🙂

Good luck!
