只要稍稍改變生活上的習慣,便可在辦公室及家居減少廢物。以下為你提供一些減廢貼士:
辦公室
- 影印前要考慮清楚需要覆印本的數量,避免多印。
- 在影印機旁放置單面紙收集箱及廢紙回收箱。
- 利用舊紙張空白的背面,自製筆記簿或作草稿紙用、及重覆使用舊信封,以減少辦公室用紙。
- 減少使用原子筆,改用鉛筆起稿。
- 減少使用膠水,可用萬字夾、小釘等替代,因為膠水含有毒化學劑。
- 避免使用塗改液,因為其中含有可以破壞地球臭氧層的「三氯乙烷」。
- 少用螢光筆。
- 自備水杯,避免使用紙杯。
- 用電子郵件通訊,減少用紙。
At the Office
- Think carefully how many copies you need and do not copy too many.
- Put a single-sided paper collection box and a waste paper recycling box near the photocopiers.
- Single-sided paper can be used as notepads and reusing envelopes.
- Use pencils for drafting rather than pens.
- Use less glue that contains benzene and ethyl acetate – paper clips and pins will often do.
- Use less correction fluid that contains the ozone depleting l.l.l-trichloroethane.
- Reduce the use of fluorescent pens – you can just underline text instead.
- Bring your own mug so you don’t have to use disposable paper cups.
- Communicate through e-mail can reduce paper use.
