many people wonder why i take the time to create books by hand using recycled materials. they are each designed and stitched by hand, which becomes a labor intensive project with little or no compensation for the finished product.
first reason is that i love to create them. the second reason is that i see so much paper laying around that could be utilized for good purposes. having worked in a few offices, from the popular organic grocery store, to a private government sector;
i have found that all offices use and misuse paper. to give you an idea of huge impact this has on our environment, see the fact below.
"If the United States cut office paper use by just 10% it would prevent the emission of 1.6 million tons of greenhouse gases -- the equivalent of taking 280,000 cars off the road."
