Paper from Elephant Dung?
That’s right. Elephant dung. From journals and notebooks to personal stationary, The Great Elephant Poo Poo Paper Company has created a line of products made from elephant waste. Many of us are probably familiar with TerraCycle’s worm waste-based fertilizer, but these products give whole new meaning to the term reuse and sustainability! The paper is made by drying the dung, and then thoroughly rinsing it until the fibers from the vegetation the elephants consumed, are the only element remaining, which are in turn, eventually transformed into the actual paper fibers. As a further indication of their commitment to sustainability, a portion of the sale of their “Products with a Purpose” is put towards supporting the welfare and conservation of elephant habitat around the world.
