The Paper Chase
The Paper Chase
by Amy Fleischer

Do you ever have one of those moments where you look at the stack of papers on your desk and feel overwhelmed at the prospect of sorting through them all? And, do you end up chucking many of these print-outs, mailings, magazines, envelopes, and post-it notes in the “circular file,” a.k.a. the trash bin, at the end of the day? You are not alone. According to the Michigan Department of Environmental Quality, the average office worker throws away 1.5 pounds of paper weight each day. At the end of a year, we have collectively thrown away enough wood and paper products to heat 5 million homes for 200 years. What’s the answer?
