Many times the supplies we use for school are not earth-friendly. Even if you try to buy all your notebook paper recycled and make sure to print on both sides of the paper, it is impossible to be 100% green.

Sometimes we forget too, that pencils are made from wood and usually this wood is not recycled or even manufactured in a ‘green’ way. Plus, it is not easy to recycle a pencil. But there is one earth-friendly pencil out there that solves this issue.

It is a pencil called Seed, and when you have used it up, you plant it! Inside this pencil there is a seed, so all you have to do is put it in the ground.

We love this idea and we like that by using this pencil you are helping to reforest the earth. Another thing you can do to save on resources is use up your erasers before buying new ones and always recycle paper.
