2006 Stewardship Report: Sustaining the Natural World: Responsible Use of Paper: Recycling and Reusing our Paper

While we are working to increase recycled fiber content in our paper, we also strive to improve our internal recycling efforts and reusing materials whenever possible. By the end of 2009, our goal is to recycle 75 percent of the paper we use in our operations. In 2006, we believe office paper, boxes and other paper used in operations was almost 22% of our paper purchases. In 2007, we will develop and implement a consistent means of measuring the portion of this number that is recycled.
