Better Paper

Though it's the reality right now, I don't like seeing how wasteful our society is (you can get a pretty shocking visual of the situation here). Lately though, I've noticed some minor improvements in the attitude towards this precious environment of ours; over the last few weeks, I've been thrilled to come across lots of paper goods made out of recycled paper - ones that I didn't even expect or choose intentionally.  Every single time, this discovery has made my day a little better because to me, it is a small sign that we are taking notice of our bad habits and working to change them for the better. There is a long way to becoming truly sustainable, but from the looks of it, we're on the right path.
