The ProblemWastage of paperExcessive use of paper

Reuse of paperMinimizing use of paper

The Solution

Feel Since we felt strongly that we could do something regarding the reduction of use of paper we had put our heads together and had some ideas

The Ideas Generated Were

To cover the Registers that teachers use with newspaper only which were earlier covered with chart papers or fluorescent sheets.

Group sms can sent instead of sending circularsWorksheets and revision sheets can be given through

e-mail to studentsThe students are given sweets/candies on their

birthdays .These candies can be given in envelopes made of newspaper

Making envelopes from old newspaper .Promoting Paper Mache activity.To print the attendance sheet on both

the sides of paper for 2 different months .

Share We discussed our ideas

with the Principal and our Quality controller

We involved students and teachers.

Our Art department gave us ways to implement our ideas.

Do Collection of used paper every dayCollection of used charts, sheets etc.. from students

and various other departments of the school.
