I first heard about the eQ Tool while I was in school and was curious what it was all about. I wanted to find out more, but was busy with school and totally forgot about it. Yesterday the Daily Heller brought it to my attention once again, and gave me some more details.
The eQ Tool was launched by Sappi Fine Paper as part of their commitment to sustainability. The eQ Tool is a web-based tool that gives designers in depth information to help them choose sustainable paper. It explores ways to best use recycled fiber and the progress made in forest certification and waste reduction.
With the eQ Tool you can explore:
1. Greenhouse Gas Emissions
2. Renewable Energy
3. Managing Process to Minimize Waste
4. Carbon Offsets
5. Sustainably-Harvested Wood
6. Initiatives for Sustainability
7. Recycled Fiber
Designers can use the tool to create customized statements that summarize the benefits of choosing eco-friendly paper, making it even easier to convince clients.
Hopefully in the future I will be able this tool to enhance my projects with recycled paper.
