The arrival of a new baby in the family always brings joy to a home, and most parents want to share this joy with their relatives and their friends by sending out birth announcements.
Birth announcements are like greeting cards that contain important information about the birth of your baby. This includes the name of your baby, the date and time your baby was born, and sometimes even the weight of the baby is included.
Birth announcements take on a lot of forms, one of which is the traditional card that you send through the mail, while on the internet, there are electronic birth announcements that you can send through e-mail. However, a new way of sending birth announcements is becoming very popular. This new form uses recycled paper for your birth announcements instead of the usual card material that we see.
Environment-friendly birth announcements
One of the reasons why forests around the world are being depleted is because of the high demand for paper that are used for documents and other things like greeting cards. By using recycled paper for your birth announcements, you not only help in preserving the environment, but you can create awareness on environmental issues as well.
Companies that offer recycled birth announcements and other cards use a combination of materials for their paper. The most common that are used are used office paper, junk mail, used grocery bags, and even grass. As an added bonus, most of these firms also use clean energy sources such as solar power, and they use recycled water from air conditioners or dehumidifiers in the production of their paper.
Colors
Most of these forms also use environment-friendly methods in coloring their cards. These companies do not use dyes and most of the time, the colors that they need are obtained from the materials that they use, such as old newspapers and used office documents. They also do not use chlorine in bleaching the paper because using chlorine in making paper releases harmful dioxins into the environment. This new way of sending birth announcements, can achieve the double purpose of sharing your joy in the birth of your child and creating awareness about the environment.
