Print has a one-time energy cost but stores information forever without requiring additional energy to maintain like digital content – especially stored in the cloud.
Paper is widely recycled at over 70% in Europe today, contributing to the circular economy. Paper and paperboard products are also biodegradable, in contrast to plastic.
