Please consider the environment before printing this blog

Now that we've had a small departure to the outer realm of the solar system, it's time to get back to the real world. Being an engineer, the real world involves a small office and lots of time on the computer and big piles of paper that get bigger every day. Wouldn't it be nice if we could reduce some of our paper load?

Well, I got an email from a local architect just the other day, and at the very end of it there was a neat little statement. "Please consider the environment before printing this e-mail" It's in their signature, so all correspondence going out of their office lets you know two things: you shouldn't waste paper needlessly, and their office does indeed care about the environment.
