Every time you complete this action, you will reduce emissions by an estimated 2 lbs. CO2e.

Printing on both sides of the page is an easy way to cut your paper use in half. Set the default printing mode to “duplex” — most office and an increasing number of home printers include this feature. If yours doesn’t, you can print just the odd-numbered pages (this is an option in Word), flip the papers over, and then print the even-numbered pages. Remember to recycle any documents you’re finished with.
