Spotted: Ecologically friendly stationery usually means recycled paper or paper made from alternative cellulose-based materials. While less resource-intensive than paper made from virgin pulp, recycled paper still uses a significant amount of water and electricity. Now, the solution to the conundrum of how to enjoy paper without using up the world’s water could be tree-free paper.
Other paper replacement innovations that Springwise has spotted recently include edible seaweed food packaging and bamboo toilet roll.
The feel of paper in the hand is one of the many things that booklovers love about books. Despite pessimistic predictions, the paper industry did not decline as steeply as expected following the introduction of e-readers and other digital devices. And with increased attention on plastic waste as online shopping became more popular, paper and board use in shipping is more popular than ever. Paper and pulp use is expected to double between 2010 and 2060, meaning that innovations like Paper / On The Rocks are needed urgently to avoid further degradation of the environment through water use and deforestation.
