The article focuses on the declining use of paper in U.S. households. The ubiquitous use of microcomputers has resulted in fewer homes using paper for work, home finances, or school, and the idea of a paperless environment is increasing accepted. At the same time, the use of paper is rapidly expanding in developing countries such as China.
