hawke,
Since you grew up near a mill, could you, or anyone else, try to clear 
something up for me. I like to use paper bags and paper cups and such 
instead of plastic and styrofoam because it seems more environmentally 
sound, but someone told me that it takes a lot more energy and causes more 
air polution to make paper products than plastic and  especially 
styrofoam. So the question is, do mills polute the air and water?

thanks,
alarm
