Seton Hall University's These Come From Trees Video

The Ecology club at Seton Hall University just published a video about their These Come From Trees deployment at the school. It seems the Ecology club worked to deploy TCFT stickers across bathroom paper towel dispenser and napkin dispensers, and then documented the project!

What's more, they did some interviewing of people exiting restrooms to document the impact of the stickers. Very cool guys!

While there have been hundreds of higher education and professional organizations who use These Come From Trees stickers (well, in addition to thousands of individuals!), this is the first video we've seen!

Check out the video:

Below you can buy packs of "These Come From Trees" stickers.

Suffice it to say, we figure $10 for 50 stickers is a pretty fair shake. 20 cents worth of sticker can save a tree's worth of paper each year, 100 pounds.

The charge is to cover cost of durable laminated stickers (to hold up to washing), postage, and fulfillment costs. Overages will be donated to Sierra Club.

From our field testing, each sticker deployed saves about a tree's worth of paper (~100 lbs.) a year. Crazy, isn't it?
