Might I suggest post-consumer recycled content paper? The EDF report from
their Paper Task Force lays out the environmental benefits. As do other
reports and people around the country.

Subject: [GRRN] Rubicon tree-free paper

As a desktop publisher, I am responsible for selecting or making paper
recommendations for my clients. My printer has recommended Rubicon
Tree-free paper (it is advertised as bamboo, from small farms in the
Pacific Rim, helping the small farmer, using less water, etc.), and so far
I've been happy with it. I'd like to find out more about it.

Has anyone heard of it?

I'm wondering if there are there pros or cons about it that I may be
overlooking.

Any info. on this would be appreciated.

Thank you.
