Can something like document destruction be part of the solution to the end times that seem to be approaching? The facts as they stand right now point only in one direction and that is to “yes! What many people don't know is that document destruction services also work closely with paper recycling businesses in the community. These businesses turn the piles of confetti that document destruction operations bring them back in to paper pulp.
What is Cellulose Insulation?
What is done with the paper pulp? One very popular use for it is in the manufacture of cellulose insulation. Cellulose insulation made from recycled documents has over one third the R value of standard fiberglass insulation and also tends not to settle as much as other forms of insulation such as fiberglass.
Twice the Posetive Impact
So how does this all relate to climate change? When any paper is recycled, it means that trees in a forest are left standing. More trees standing means more carbon dioxide is eliminated from the atmosphere. Also, when cellulose insulation is blown into a buildings attic that building will use less energy.

The fact is, that recycling paper has a far more reaching impact on climate change and more uses for recycled paper are being explored every day.
