Digital Notes - Green Living Tip Brought to you by Ideal Bite
Want a reminder to use less paper?
The Bite:
Here goes: Use digital desktop notes that act as reminders on your laptop or phone instead of Post-its. They're cost-free, tree-free, and never lose their stickiness. Don't forget.
The Benefits:
- Paper-free mnemonic devices. Sticky notes don't use all that much paper, but the average American uses the equivalent of a tree 100 feet high and 18 inches in diameter each year, and every little bit counts.
- Remembering to save cash. Post-its aren't that expensive either (at maybe a buck per 100), but free's even better.
Jen From Renewable Choice Says: Love the paperless notes tip. Personally, I use Google Desktop (quick easy download) and the Macbook (my home computer) comes with a post-it application already installed on the dashboard- what could be easier? Not only do you save paper/trees/the planet, but with the 'notepad' right there on your desktop while you're working away and the handy electronic reminders you can set, you have almost a 100% guarantee that you wont loose or forget that important note. Which reminds me... ~Jen
