Do you want to contribute to a sustainable world within absolute minimal effort?

Are you like me?

A passionate paper-writer with a tinge of guilt-conscious begging you to shift all your work online(or at least digitize them). Why buy all the organizers and planners year after year knowing that you will eventually toss them in the bin, brand-new no less.

The solution? Pilot FriXion Erasable Pen.

This ink developed by the Japanese Company ‘Pilot’ has been around for at least a decade. I briefly remembered using them as a kid but it was so bad before — the paper came off where I was supposed to rub the ink to erase it. I erased the paper, which effectively erases the ink /Haha.

How it works

This ink would disappear after it reaches 65 degrees Celsius so once it sets on the paper, it could be rubbed and erased. Simple and effective! I can now reuse all my cute notebooks, organizers and to-do lists! Less paper consumption!

Just this tiny switch and we can make away with necessary WFH paper waste.
