Smiling because this picture was taken without the use of paper...
My name is Micah, and this is a blog about my change challenge as part of the Engineering for Sustainable Development program at the University of Cambridge, UK.
For my change challenge, I am quitting paper.
I am refusing to take paper given to me, and to produce paper myself (e.g. printing). If I do use paper, I am documenting that use, why it was unavoidable, how it could be avoided in the future, and trying to change whatever prevented me from not using paper. I am thus trying to move along the reduce-reuse-recycle spectrum from recycling paper through to reducing my paper use to zero, and in the process try to discover and change the barriers to me doing so.
This is the story of my journey. Thank you for joining me.
