And also buy products from recycled paper… You may be asking yourself how can I tell if the paper I’m using is recyclable?

Just take a quick look a the packaging. You will find a lot “especially nowadays!” have marked on the made from 100% recycled material.But, also there is a lot that don’t have this marking…” I guess it’s taking some companies awhile to catch up!”

One sure fire way to tell if your paper or cardboard is recyclable, is to take a look at the underside. If it’s of a gray color or dark brown color, the paper or cardboard is of a recyclable nature. Example: cereal boxes,cookies, crackers, and a whole lot of other grocery packaged items.

If it’s white in color…It’s definitely of an unrecycled material.

So, it’s really kinda easy to get started recycling your own paper & cardboard items you just have to know what to look for… And now you know :-)

And maybe if enough of us do this very little thing, our children will see a whole new world of trees and the beauty they provide for all of us…Not to mention the life giving fuel they provide for all of us!
