10 Ways In Which Designers Can Save Paper:

#1.) Using recycled paper instead of new, tree-based manufactured paper.
#2.) Print on both sides of the paper when possible; i.e. when printing prototypes, test prints, etc.
#3.) Instead of printing a draft to proof-read it, change the font and size of the text so your eyes are unfamiliar with what's written and therefore can more easily catch errors.
#4.) Sign up for "paperless billing" and eliminate mailed bills and receipts by conducting commerce via the internet.
#5.) Use recycled ink jet cartridges instead of buying once which are newly manufactured.
#6.) Use e-mail to send tests or prototypes whenever possible instead of printing them to show to someone else.
#7.) Use natural, hand-made papers when possible to avoid the cost and waste of manufactured papers.
#8.) Challenge yourself to create more simple, consolidated designs which fit on less paper for company brochures, leaflets, etc.
#9.) Design objects which use biodegradable materials for the packaging. Instead of the waste sitting in a landfill, consumers can rest easy knowing the packaging will return to the earth.
#10.) Encourage and influence consumers, clients, and fellow designers to follow your lead in reducing waste of paper.
