“GOOS paper”
“Give your children GOOS paper (Good On One Side) for drawings.”
“"Why are you writing on a piece of paper?" he asks, appalled. I look down at the back of the school flyer I had just scribbled on. "… Because I believe in GOOS paper?" But he has already disappeared upstairs, to find his laptop.”
“GOOS Bins [section heading] / 91% of participating EcoSchools have implemented a GOOS paper (or Good On One Side paper) system within their classrooms, libraries, and administrative areas. The concept is very simple and requires a school to create a bin system to house paper that is still blank "good" on one side. This encourages staff and students to use the other side of the GOOS paper for quick notes, quizzes, etc. in lieu of reaching for a fresh piece.”
- (not-comparable)Related to or intended for such paper.
