This is a badge bit (BB) that is part of the PEM curriculum.  Completing this BB is part of getting the sand badge in Waste Streams.

Paper and newspaper tends to arrive at our houses even if we don't want it.  One way to use it is to start fires.  Let's come up with a simple system to store that paper for use in winter!

 

Minimum requirements:
  - Come up with a system to hold paper and/or newspapers for use in fire starting
  - Must be tidy looking
  - Must be more than 2' from your wood burning device
  - This is not making fire starters with wax or other materials, it's just storing the paper in a nice manner

Provide proof of the following as pictures or video (<2 min):
  - Place where storage will happen
  - System in place
  - System in use with waste paper accumulating
 
Or we might never have existed at all. Freaky. So we should cherish everything. Even this tiny ad:
