Day 142: Reclaiming the office from paper overflow (8/11/2008)

I've been shredding documents and getting rid of the massive amounts of paper that have accumulated over my tenure as a graduate student. I've recently made a more concerted effort to keep my articles in electronic format in order to lessen the amount of paper I use. I consider it kind of tree solidarity.

This picture shows two black garbage bags of shredded documents, a grocery bag of recyclable white paper, and some chipboard. I'm suddenly beginning to feel much lighter.
