These blog posts with the 'header' titles, "My Point Of View On," Parts 1 - 26, are originally from my "Paul Whiting — Math Magician" blog, which is my blog with the fewest posts. So, I decided to not group posts in this series with similar topics from that blog (unlike the blog post series with similar topics from my other blogs, which I republished on my "Paul Whiting — A Creative Writer" blog), because I wanted this series of posts in their chronological order, representing the way they were originally published.
My Point Of View On...
Paper Products, Including Using
100% Recycled Paper Products
My Point Of View No. 1: Paper products, including office paper products (such as printing and writing paper, stationary, and envelopes), or paper publication products (such as magazines, newspapers, brochures, flyers, books, notebooks, and binders), card stock paper products (such as greeting cards and postcards), paper packaging products (such as cardboard, paperboard, cartons, and grocery bags), and tissue paper products (such as paper towels, napkins, tissue paper, and toilet paper) can be made from recycled paper—with up to 100% recycled paper content.
My Point Of View No. 2: If possible, "choose to use" recycled paper products (with up to 100% recycled paper content), including office paper products, paper publication products, card stock paper products, paper packaging products, and tissue paper products, for all of your paper product needs. I "choose to use" recycled paper products by trying to buy 100% recycled paper products, as much as possible, and I use them "guilt-free."

My Writing Notes:
The reason that I wrote this prose can be summed up with the following statement: If possible, "choose to use" recycled paper products (with up to 100% recycled paper content) for all of your paper product needs. I "choose to use" recycled paper products by trying to buy 100% recycled paper products, as much as possible, and I use them "guilt-free."
And this prose was also published on my "Paul Whiting — Math Magician" blog (please see the hyperlink below for the blog), since I feel that the message in this prose applies to the message I am trying to convey through "Paul Whiting — Math Magician."
This prose was written in Portland, Oregon.

"Paper recycling" from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia—which is funded primarily through donations from millions of individuals around the world, including this blogger (I make a totally affordable monthly donation):
"The recycling of paper is the process by which waste paper is turned into new paper products. It has a number of important benefits: It saves waste paper from occupying homes of people and producing methane as it breaks down. Because paper fibre contains carbon (originally absorbed by the tree from which it was produced), recycling keeps the carbon locked up for longer and out of the atmosphere. Around two-thirds of all paper products in the US are now recovered and recycled, although it does not all become new paper. After repeated processing the fibres become too short for the production of new paper - this is why virgin fibre (from sustainably farmed trees) is frequently added to the pulp recipe.
There are three categories of paper that can be used as feedstocks for making recycled paper: mill broke, pre-consumer waste, and post-consumer waste. Mill broke is paper trimmings and other paper scrap from the manufacture of paper, and is recycled in a paper mill. Pre-consumer waste is a material which left the paper mill but was discarded before it was ready for consumer use. Post-consumer waste is material discarded after consumer use, such as old corrugated containers (OCC), old magazines, and newspapers. Paper suitable for recycling is called 'scrap paper', often used to produce moulded pulp packaging. The industrial process of removing printing ink from paper fibres of recycled paper to make deinked pulp is called deinking, an invention of the German jurist Justus Claproth."
