13 billion pounds of paper towels are used in the U.S. every year!

If all Americans used one less paper towel a day, 5.7 million pounds of paper would be spared over the course of the year. 

How to Use Just ONE Paper Towel

1. Shake

If you shake your hands just 10 times over the sink, 
most of the water is removed. 

2. Fold

Folding increases the absorbency of a paper towel. Take just one paper towel and fold it in half before wiping your hands.  

How to Encourage the Use of ONE Paper Towel 

1. Place a sticker, like the one below, on your paper towel holder.
