  <description>&lt;p&gt;Instead of throwing away old drafts or mailings or any piece of paper that has a blank flipside, use them for a number of things:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;For a typical 8.5 x 11 piece of paper, create a pile for the pages that still have a blank side, then when you're printing something that's not that important, or clearly a draft, use the used stuff.&amp;nbsp; This saves me ton.&amp;nbsp; Several reams a year I'd say.&amp;nbsp; After a while you realize you didn't print out that many things that you needed to keep long term...&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Save the cardboard box that came with your file folders or the like as a perfect deposit for your one sided scrap paper. &amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;For other types of paper sizes, create a stack and after you have a good amount, you can use a large paper trimmer to turn them in to post it size note pads.&amp;nbsp; Doodle, do math, write reminders etc, on paper you were going to throw away later anyway. &amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;As a result of this solution, you would be amazed at how long it takes to run through paper...and you likely save a tree every couple years worth of paper, depending on how much you print.&amp;nbsp; If you work at a large company, and you implement this practice, you could save 100 trees worth of printing paper a year. &amp;nbsp; &lt;/p&gt;</description>
