"Green" paper

How do you tell whether your printer paper is from a kosher source and not from an endangered rainforest?

We’re consuming more paper than ever before – a hefty 212kg each. Consumption has risen nearly 30 percent in just the last 15 years.

Some of this paper mountain is likely to be sourced from threatened Asian rainforests. Importers don’t have to prove their paper products come from a bona fide source. So you could be sold products of uncertain origins.
