Second Sheet: a closed loop paper system for schools

Second Sheet is a three step paper recycling system adaptable for any lower educational facility, with the aim of creating a closed loop system for paper waste; whilst additionally tackling the issues around sustainability education. Issues around paper waste have been growing despite inclusion of more technology. Recent government legislation forced more pressure onto the staff and schools, causing stress in those with minimal funding. The Second Sheet project looks to relieve the stress of paper waste on the staff, whilst providing the students an educational outlook onto the wider systems of recycling.
