We have a paper recycling bin, located across
the parking lot from the Community Building. It
is furnished to us at no charge by the Abitibi-
Bowater Company, which provides 70% of the
paper used for all the newspapers currently
printed in the world.
Each ton of paper that is recycled saves:
* 4102 kilowatt-hours of electricity
* 60 pounds of air pollution
* 7,000 gallons of wate and
* 3.3 cubic yards of landfill space.
In addition, St. Mark’s will receive a payment
from the company each month, dependent on
the amount of papers we recycle.
Accepted items are: Newspapers, Magazines
Mail, Catalogs, and School and Office Supplies.
