The document discusses paper waste in schools across several countries. It finds that students and teachers in Hungary generally don't waste much paper, as the school uses an electronic system. Some teachers in the Basque Country use digital boards instead of paper, but not all. Teachers in the Basque Country also make photocopies on both sides of paper to reduce waste. A school in Portugal reduced photocopying by 25% by limiting the number allowed, saving €1200 in 4 months. Schools in Sweden and Hungary collect used paper to reuse or recycle. A campaign in Portugal collects used paper for recycling and donation. Suggestions are made to share books electronically and create an art club that reuses paper.
