GreenAV – Episode 6: Paper Isn’t the Devil, but it is Kind of a Problem
This year I discovered one of those products that is a true solution to a major issue. I found an incredible collateral/material distribution system that can address the major issue of paper consumption and have a chat with the co-founder, Joshua Shannon. I also throw down this month’s challenge that revolves around paper measurement and reduction.
Here are resources to help you complete the monthly challenge:

Remember, keep doing the monthly challenge. I will be awarding one lucky winner a super awesome prize (although the prize is TBD) at the end of the year for completing the challenges!”
