Commentary
All parks use 60% recycled Fuji-Xerox Green Wrap paper for all standard A4 printing or photocopying tasks. All parks have printers with double-sided printing capability and there is a standard practice of reusing paper wherever possible. Paper is recycled at ANBG and at Booderee and at the remote sites some used paper is shredded and used as mulch or packaging material.
Goals 2006-07
- All parks have in place strategies to reduce paper use
- Reduce paper use in 2006-07.
