Billions of receipts are printed everyday across the world.

Tree for (unnecessary) Paper

It takes 12 trees to make 1 ton of unrecycled paper and most receipts are non-recyclable. Every year, in the UK, consumers dispose of 7300 tons of receipts in the bin that’s 87000 trees to supply receipts paper in the UK alone.

In the USA, this number stands at 10 million Trees a year. You may hear people say these trees are grown for paper purposefully, but these plantations replace forests as there is commercial value and demand for paper. Let's not cheat ourselves anymore. We need to start acting now rather than finding reasons not to.

Toxins

Consumers, on average, come in contact with receipts at least 12 times in a week according to a recent study. Most of these receipts are coated with Toxic BPA and other chemicals to get the print to stay on the paper. The health impacts of these toxins range from causing diabetes, thyroid to fetal development issues in pregnant women.

Climate Actions & Legislations.

A lot of countries have banned toxins on paper receipts but many still allow toxic receipt rolls. Several countries have made providing receipt mandatory which makes it inevitable but not unbeatable.

Let's join together to beat toxic landfilling paper receipts!

Don’t worry about sounding professional. Sounds like you. There are over 1.5 billion websites out there, but your story is what’s going to separate this one from the rest.
