Open envelopes carefully so that you can re-use them by either crossing out the address on it or covering it up. We might not need to buy envelopes for years if we do that. Envelopes require alot of paper and energy to make so it's definitley worth re-using them. You can fold a letter so that the other side becomes the envelope - all you have to do is put a stamp on it. How to make recycled paper by hand.
Recycling paper is very easy.
To make pulp from this waste paper all you have to do is soak the waste paper in water for a day or two and then tear it up and beat it with an egg beater or a blender. This is usually called 'pulp' - a mixture of paper and water. What you end up with on the screen is a very wet sheet of paper. You let it drain for a minute or two and then transfer it to a wet cloth by turning the screen over onto the cloth. Then, just cover that wet paper with another cloth and scoop up some more pulp.
