Watch That Waste Paper

The readers of 'Salient' newspaper should take more care about what they do with their newspaper when they've finished with it. Large numbers of this newspaper are, for example, left lying on the tables of the bottom and third floor cafeterias. This creates a disposal problem for other people, (namely cafeteria staff) which is really unnecessary. The more considerate action would be to take the paper home or put it back on the pile or stuff it in the rubbish bins. (This wastepaper is really only a smaller section of a much larger problem of badly disposed off used articles i.e. drink containers, paper bags, etc. and the solution is similar—throw it in a rubbish bin.) Ecologically it would be better to recycle as many of these materials as possible and at present only one location is known for collection of waste paper—the Kelburn Primary School Collects Waste Paper.
