Life Technologies now sells all of their products in plastic bottles. Bring your own coffee cup to the cafeteria when you buy coffee. The price will be determined by the size of your cup. But you will save paper, and have more insulation for your hot coffee. If you just want a glass of ice water with your lunch, bring your own cup to the cafeteria.
Water is available at the self-service area near the microwaves.
Use e-mail as much as possible to send notes, notices, and reminders. Copy only what you want to keep, not the entire document. Then recycle the paper. Dick Sloane has forms to do this. If a company allows it, specify the material you would like to receive and that which you don't want.
