Picture for a second, a future world where all the paper goods we consume can bud into a flower when planted in soil.  Like Willy Wonka’s Chocolate Factory where everything is edible, except with this ideal world: all of the paper is seeded and sproutable, plus the schnozberries still taste like schnozberries!  The way it turns out, seed paper transforms this possibility into a reality.

If you have never heard of seeded paper you are not alone, who knew paper made out of seeds possibly will bloom a flower or any plant for that matter? Yes, despite the paper making procedure, the seeds can still germinate which enables them to bud when planted.  Seed paper is a beautiful, eye-catching, and easily recyclable item which may include many different plant seeds.

But why should we utilize and increase the word about eco-friendly seed paper and all recycled paper for that matter?  In accordance with the CWAC (Clean Water Action Council) the answer is due to environmental damage caused by the paper industry, which is a good deal more than merely deforestation. The following are a few main damaging effects on our eco systems caused by paper waste according to Clean Water Action Council. A lot of impure sediments seep into food supplies and river systems containing a multitude of species of fish and ducks. There is certainly a ceaseless continuation of toxic chemical pollution, in addition to atmosphere pollutants including carbon dioxide, nitrous oxides, sulfur dioxides, carbon monoxides and particulates. There is also a large quantity of energy consumption. Mills extract a immense quantity of electrical energy from public utilities, or mills are forced to construct their very own energy facilities. An extensive quantity of water is needed along with copious quantities of solid waste. Worldwide, colossal tracts of forest are stricken by the paper industry, accounting to the world’s scary deforestation trends. Politicians are a bit deterred to act caused by collaboration of government entities and the multi billion dollar paper industry interests.

The majority of us are aware of global warming, man’s ever-growing carbon footprint, and detrimental man-made pollution of all sorts.  We perceive with our own eyes the unsafe toll on the environment attributable to the increased effects of our personal human actions and behavior.  We wish to reduce, reuse, recycle, and make this planet a greater place for upcoming generations, but every so often we must be confident, empowered, and reminded.  We are making strides with companies promoting the use of reusable grocery bags. Seed paper as well is an ideal way to inspire one another to go green.

If you’re a business expert, conservationist, business proprietor, salesperson, or simply passling along your annual holiday letter to family and friends, using seeded paper as your correspondence stationary is a great way to show your personal or organization-wide promise to reducing your carbon footprint while also saving trees.   When you give out your seed business card, or send out your holiday seed cards you are extending the excellent news about seeded paper, recycling, and the imperative necessity for all of us to exist and be eco friendly.  As the 40th anniversary of Earth Day comes to pass (April 22nd), there has never been a more fitting moment for organizations to purvey their obligation to reducing their carbon footprint through adopting green methods to make this world a better place for upcoming generations.
