  • I'm a proud papermaker. We use 100% recycled fiber. Check out my papermaking 101 video and follow the links in the description box to find out more about a great way to make paper.

  • Hell yeah! But hey, not good enough cause the paper is not perfectly white! And they would say it has THC in it! Most importantly it won't make as much money for the greedy. Thanks for posting, this is such a huge problem.

  • The Constitution of the United States of America is printed on hemp paper... how's that for a factoid! Great video and you have my support as a USGBC LEED AP. Keep up the good work, friends.

  • OMGsh. Now can see the virtue of iPad and eBook readers - no paper. BUT still love books... but will learn to live with electronic books instead. (Just a few paper books now and then! : ) And i don't EVER want bookstores to disappear. Bookstores with coffee shops are like heaven.

  • The key is less consumption and eliminating the consumerism mentality.

  • Global Warming is a hoax and I don't believe in it.

    But I still recycle paper, cardboard, plastic and aluminum.

  • thank for great vdo

  • Great video!  Very interesting...

  • Hemp its an sustainable alternative for paper!!!

    Google "Hemp revolution"

  • This is important - Every one of us can easily recycle paper and use recycled paper. Ask for it, buy it, recycle it. We use the 100% recycled copy paper from Staples that they show in the video, and it works perfectly. We also use the Marcal toilet paper, also available at Staples and Costco. Thank you, INFORM! Great video.
