Data source(s) and notes about the submission:

A significant portion of our office paper purchases is eucalyptus, a rapidly renewable material that is Forest-Stewardship Council certified. We have also reduced printing significantly with the pandemic's work-from-home period. New printers at the print shop have enabled us to try recycled paper again.
