Have you thought about taking your office paperless? It seems like a simple goal, but there are significant challenges. Gina MacIlwraith from Grand Teton Lodge Company will lead a training session based on her experience with reducing paper use at one of the largest employers in the valley. She will then join Jon Mobeck from the Murie Center and Terri Merino from Habitat for Humanity for a panel discussion.
