50. Reuse cardboard.
Green Mountain Coffee Roasters handles tons of cardboard. It used to pay a company to take it away and dispose of it. But now it bands all cardboard up and ships it to a company that sells it to larger box stores that import from overseas. “Now we get paid to have it picked up.” As for the cardboard it doesn’t ship out? Green Mountain shreds it and uses it for packaging.
