Now that you know a little bit about how paper is made
, you might appreciate it more when you're hovering over your copier, waiting for the printable paper to be done, or when you're mailing your checks in colored envelopes. Paper making is efficient and green because all of the energy used for its creation comes from burning wastes. And since you can recycle paper about 3 times before the fibers fall apart completely, don't feel bad about doodling or scrawling a note.
