Wrap your presents in plain recyclable paper

For those who live in a country where recycling is available, you are encouraged not to wrap your gifts in gift wrapping paper such the one pictured below:


The reason is such kind of plastic paper cannot be recycled and is thrown into garbage after being used only once. Regular white or brown paper on the other hand even after once can be recycled and thrown into recyclable waste.

The image below is what it looks like when used for wrapping packages including gifts:

Readers are encouraged to use such type of paper when wrapping gifts instead of plastic wrapping gift paper which only adds to waste whereas regular white or brown paper can be recycled and used again.
