I remember when buying recycled paper was all the rage. I think I was in middle school. You could get loose leaf paper and spiral bound recycled paper. Well, Post It is making it cool again to buy recycled paper.
You Can purchase

Recycling is an important strategy for diverting waste from overcrowded landfills. The collected paper is used as a raw material for making recycled paper, boxes, and tissue products. Recycling also protects forests by reducing the need for virgin fiber. But recycling means more than just collecting recyclable items. The three elements of recycling include the collection of waste, the manufacture of new products from recycled material and the purchase of these items. By purchasing recycled content products you help strengthen the market for those products, encourage new technologies and create more stable markets for the sale of materials separated from recycling. When you purchase recycled paper products, you’re doing your part for the environment.
My Opinion:
It’s normal paper, you can’t tell the difference. Is the super sticky really super sticky. In my opinion yes it is. I was blogging, or reading, or trying to take a nap. (my days are really starting to run together and I should not be blogging at this exact moment but then I’ll be even further behind) Anyways, my daughter found a package that they sent me to test. She opened it up and started playing with the pads. She was putting each piece in the window.
I look at my window now I couple days later, they are still hanging there.
But to me this is more about the responsibility that 3M is taking and trying to make a difference for our environment.

“All Post-it® Notes can be recycled. Any recycler that accepts mixed paper can remove the adhesive—making the Note 100% recyclable!” I had no idea!!!

These Post-Its were featured on Oprah for their sustainability!
love it mverno@roadrunner.com
3M has long been a leader in environmental ethics. A few years ago they set goals for their corporation on various environmental effects (such as carbon or smog emissions, etc.) and when they measured if they reached their goals they found that they overwhelmingly exceeded them. 🙂
(I know this silly stuff because I used to live in St. Paul where 3M headquarters are located)

I didn’t know that you could recycle post-it notes! They jam up my shredder, so it didn’t occur to me that I could actually recycle them!
i am a knitter who loves books. but not marking up books. before they came out with the restickable clear plastic tape that you can put down and then lift up and move, i used postits to do the same thing. 3m has been eco friendly forever! and they seem to get better at it every year. (and their products have helped lots of students or others keep books looking nice!)

Paper can be recycled 5 to 7 times before the fibers are not usable anymore. Just think your post it could be made from a post it that was used by someone famous or even something that made history was written on it, That is kinda cool to think about.

3M has conducted recycling trials on Post-it® Notes at recycled paper mills. The adhesive on the paper does not interfere with paper recycling because the adhesive is substantially removed in the paper deinking process. The dyes in the paper are removed in the deinking process.

I like recyclable products, expecially the ones I use every day. I find that when I use them, it sets a good example for my children and grandchildren. I pass along the savings and we all save the trees.

If you mean environmentally responsible, recycle Post-It notes. I learned on the 3M website that they can be recycled where mixed paper is accepted, even though they have adhesive. It did not know that.
