Yeah, they got that (if you can find it)

Adopting the green bug is harder than it seems.

I go to Staples to buy 100% recycled paper for our home printer, and I have to walk past reams and reams of earth-killing wasteful non-recyclable paper and then go downstairs to hunt for the green stuff. There's a small row of it, which I proudly buy

At the cashier, I gently ask the cashier if they couldn't make it more prominent but he ignores me. (This is only worse than a cashier uptown at a deli I frequent who didn't know the Olympic Games were coming to China this summer)

After Twittering about it, I realize that Twittering is just venting and I can do much more by writing to Staples about it. You can too. Ask them to make the 100% recyclable paper more prominent. They should be leading the effort, not just making token effort.
