- We need some help!
- Here at the University of Virginia, Student Environmental Action is
- starting a campaign to get a bill passed in the 1993 Virginia General
- Assembly session to force state agencies to procure non-chlorine bleached
- and high post-consumer waste content paper. We hope to make this a
- statewide student effort to shake things up here in the Old Dominion.
-
- What we need is information.
-
- We need information on any other states which have proposed similar
- purchasing legislation, how the bills fared, who opposed them, who
- supported them, and the texts of the bills.
-
- We also need easy to digest information about the hazards of chlorine
- bleaching and the state of the recycled paper market today--something
- soundbite-able enough to catch the attention of busy state legislators.
-
- Any help will be acknowledged and TREMENDOUSLY appreciated.
