Zz Treefree Paper From Coconut Husks, Cotton, Rice, Soybeans, Mango, Etc. Poem by Saiom Shriver

Zz Treefree Paper From Coconut Husks, Cotton, Rice, Soybeans, Mango, Etc.



Our record breaking winter cold and summer heat are caused by the destruction of many trillions of trees around the world, as well as gasoline exhaust etc.

Paper is presently made from coconut husks, rice, cotton, straw, corn husks, soybeans, fiber from mango trees, banana plants, citrus, and cocoa bean pot plants, coffee bean bags, elephant waste etc.

'Most of the waste from many of the monoculture crops
grown in the US are either burned or landfilled.
Some is plowed under', writes Rainforest Relief.
Instead of choking landfills or causing air pollution
through burning, this stumbling block can become
a stepping stone to paper.

Cotton paper lasts 400 to 500 years.
Paper from killing sentient trees
and their resident birds squirrels etc
lasts perhaps 60 years, if not exposed
to moisture etc.

Thailand has banned logging and
learned to make paper from its elephant waste.

Many office supply stores carry 100%
recycled paper. If yours doesn't please
ask the manager to order it.

The US Constitution is printed on nontree
paper.

It's time for the Social Security investors,
state and corporate pension investors
to disinvest from logging. It's time for
newspaper and book publishers to
make the change. We can all learn from Costa Rica's
Ecopaper Company which uses a variety of nontree fiber
sources.
