Buy a recycling bin for my office
Don't file under 'B' for 'bin'. File under 'R' for recycling. Buy a bin especially for recycled paper for your office to make it easy-peasy to recycle your documents. Encourage kids' creativity by having them draw on the blank side of your paper. You could even frame them and hang them in your office. Your very own Recycled Tate Modern.

We did this at our office about a year ago. About half the rubbish we threw away was paper and card and now it gets recycled. Hooray for us!
If you're a business in the central London area, we use The Laundry (thelaundry.biz) who are lovely people. Their bags cost slightly less than Westminster Council sacks, so you can even save money. (Other recycling companies are available etc.)

We've got recycling bins for different types of paper and card at work. I feel like a bit of a fraud by completing this goal though - I didn't put the bins there!

I do a lot of papercrafts, so I have a lots of scraps of paper. I bought a big blue bin so they could be easily gathered together and go out for recycling each week.
Having a big bin meant I am much likely to recycle, rather than leave it stacking up or throw it away in a mammoth cleaning session.
