(i) Proper Paper Segregation Project (PPSP) in Naga City Science High School

(ii) Introduction:
Paper is a material that has been used around for about 2000 years. It still holds its function and
provides a less expensive and less dynamic by means of spreading information or conveying
data, thoughts, or ideas.  It is considered to be as one of the most important material here in our
world, we use it in our daily lives for writing, drawing, and many other stuff. However, there are
people who just waste it and does not use it properly. Sometimes we also not give importance to
it and just threw it away without any purpose.
The Proper Paper Segregation Project plans to conserve paper here in our school community
through recycling it. Papers are very essential when it comes to students. They use it to compute
equation, solve problems, writing activities and many other more. The project is designed to
catch the attention not just the students but also the entire school community. In which there will
be 3 specified solid bins assigned for it, one for the used paper, unused paper and the colored
papers. The papers that will be collected on it will be gathered and will be sold in recycling
centers or junk shops. Furthermore, the profit of the project will be used to fund other projects in
our school.

In addition, the project can also give lessons to the all the member of the school community on
the importance of paper to us, as well as the ways on how we can conserve it. The project also
aims to lessen the trash here in our school campus. According to a study, recycling 1 ton of paper
saves around 682.5 gallons of oil, 26,500 liters of water and 17 trees. Through this project, we
can help lessen the consumption of paper and save our environment.
