Whoa, that's a really wise and applaudable move.

BTW I really like pens from this company. I remember living in Japan in the late 90s and wondering what stone age country I was from, where we didn't have such amazing writing products available from the quality stationers, let alone the shack of a corner store.

Uni makes the best normally-priced office-stationery pens I've ever given away as gifts, to this day. I used to get them sent free for blog reviews but unfortunately ran out of time for that. Still a happy customer.

This is excellent and gets us most of the way there.

The final step would be for it to be compostable (eg. lined with something waxy).

Is the paper actually biodegradable or is it basically just plastic coated paper?
