  • Some paper use can’t be avoided, so use recycled paper and envelopes that have been processed and colored using eco-friendly methods.
  • Pens and pencils can also be made of recycled materials, and refillable pens and markers are preferable to disposable ones.
  • Use biodegradable soaps and recycled paper or cloth towels in the bathroom and kitchen, and provide biodegradable cleaners for the custodial staff.
  • Buy office administrative appliance in bulk so that shipping and packaging waste are reduced, and reuse the shipping boxes.
  • Recycling printer cartridges is often free, and recycled replacements are cheaper than new ones.
