Greener Paper Products Directory: Office and School Papers
The following table provides information about greener paper products, including brands, manufacturers, and availability
for recycled copy paper, notebooks, and filler paper. As mentioned in the Criteria: How Do I Know It’s Green section,
you should buy paper with the highest recycled content, highest amount of post-consumer waste, and the lowest amount
of chlorine. If possible you also want to look for Forest Stewardship Certification, to make sure that any of the virgin
component of the paper products are coming from sustainably harvested forests.
