Paper Plates

Where does it go?

In the RECYCLING. But sometimes in the COMPOST.

Paper is made from trees. You have probably heard "save trees, don't waste paper", because trees are a necessity to survival. We get oxygen from them and we all know you need to breathe to be able to live so not wasting paper is really important. Thankfully, paper can go back into the recycling process and be reused again. However, if it is smeared with food or grease, it must be thrown in the compost, as the food oils cannot be broken down in the recycling process.
