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? Read
