Paper towels: a school’s worst nightmare
|
In many school communities throughout the United States of America, paper towel consumption and wastage is very high. Despite the clear detrimental effects caused by the consumption of paper towels, schools still need to heavily reduce their use of paper towels and other single-use resources.

Granby has a severe case of apathy. I say this because voter turnout for the FY19-20 budget referendum was 1,052 out of a potential 7,700 registered voters; 529 voted “yes” and 523 voted “no” with the budget only passing by six votes.
