    It went well for this month, admittedly I have not been on this site a lot, but I have tried my best to complete my goal. I broke my terrible habit of not using both sides of the paper, and I plan on continuing this new mindset even after this class has ended. My family has not had to get any new paper for the printer for an entire month, so we are also saving money.

  • REFLECTION QUESTION
    Waste Choose Two-Sided Printing
    Choosing two-sided printing can be an easy adjustment on your computer settings. How can you help others make this same switch? Can it be encouraged company wide?

    It is a habit that is easy to break only after a couple of days. Not only does it help the environment, but it also saves money. In terms of a business standpoint, why waste more paper when you can use both sides and not spend as much money on paper? One can encourage others to make the switch by pointing out that it is not hard to do, and is an easy way for all of us to help out the enivornment.
