It would help in preventing paper wastage and promote paper recycling and would in turn save our trees. Rebinding is a good idea.

I am leaving this post for your viewing because after reading the talk of school supplies, I was wondering if anyone would be interested in sampling some products from the company that I am interning with? The company is O'BON. O'BON is an ecofriendly company that produces school supplies out of recycled products. For example, our pencils are made out of recycled newspapers and our notebooks are made from recycled sugar-cane pulp. We use soy based inks, the products are fun and educational. Check out the website. Let me know what you think. I really appreciate your time. Hi All!

Unlike Avery binders, they're not made from PVC. Since they're solid plastic, you won't encounter the same issue of peeling vinyl and fraying cardboard so your supplies will last more than a single semester. Hope you find this info useful.
