I think more companies should do the same. Very few are like Intel on this and many other issues.

There IS a point in recycling paper because despite paper is a renewable resource, most of the production comes from non-renewable sources such as plain old deforestation. It takes many years to raise a tree, if all paper came from tree plantations, paper costs would be much much higher.

no company will recycle if they don't profit from it. being green is a money making business. But its a good thing at the days end still.

Most of the shopping mall here are asking us to stop using plastic bag and use the reusable bag to help the environment. So it's pretty simple to recycle.
