Read 'n' Seed 5: Fourth quarter of "Paper or Plastic"

Chapters and Pages


I finished chapter two, which are pages 57-118 (which was the second half of the book, it was short) 


Main Topics

Also talked about forest and how they are the primary source of packaging. It is used for paper, container-board or corrugated box materials, boxboard, solid-wood packaging materials, molded pulp and wood shavings (85). 




What I learned & how it affects society  


I learned that using our resources is affecting us now, which is pushing us toward global warming.


Also at the end of the book, it shows multiple items on how to be eco-friendly. Like using reusable bags, PCR fleece which is made of post-consumer plastic containers.

It affects our society because if we use all of our resources then we are not going to have anything left, and how are we going to live with our resources?
