What's up with Wal-Mart? They say they are into recycling but the receipt I got yesterday was seriously like 14 inches long and I only purchased two items! I'm like, how is that helping save the environment????

It would be a simple step in saving a little bit of extra paper which would in turn save more trees. It's small steps like this that we as human beings need to start making for the future because the world is continuing to become more populated and we need to try and conserve our mother earth as well as be able to provide for ourselves and our children.

It would seem a small step for improvement! If you think about how many customers who get receipts every day even if they cut it in half they would save so much trash in our environment.

All trees used to make paper were planted to be made into paper, they aren't killing forests randomly for this. At this point complaining about trees being cut down for paper (especially in North America) is equivalent to complaining about the potatoes that are cut up to be made into french fries.

True, because we are now planting forests and replenishing. But that's not the only concern. It adds to the huge garbage heaps and all the ecological problems from that!

It's probably just Wal-Mart's way of saving on stalking potential sales, of tons of bathroom tissue...
...and if that's not "roughing it", then I don't know what is.
