World Environment Day 2024 is more than just a date on the calendar — it’s a global call to action. This year’s theme, “Restore Our Earth,” reminds us that real impact starts with small, conscious choices.
And one of the easiest yet most powerful switches? The pencil in your hand.
Every year, the world produces over 14 billion wooden pencils, costing the planet more than 82,000 trees. That’s a heavy environmental price for a tool we all use daily. Now imagine if even half of those pencils were made from recycled materials — the difference would be massive.
🌱 The Pencil With a Purpose
At NotJustPencil, we’ve turned this vision into reality with our eco-friendly pencils made from recycled newspapers and magazines. Unlike traditional wooden pencils, ours save trees, reduce landfill waste, and are handcrafted by rural women from self-help groups (SHGs) — making them a socially and environmentally impactful alternative.
Each pencil is a message:
- 📚 For students, it’s a lesson in sustainability.
- 🧑🎨 For artists, it’s a tool of change.
- 🌍 For businesses, it’s a step toward conscious corporate gifting.
💚 Empowering Communities, One Pencil at a Time
Our initiative doesn’t just protect nature — it empowers people. Through partnerships with NGOs and SHGs, every pencil packed helps support rural livelihoods, offering skill development and income to women in underserved communities.
✏️ Let This Be Your Climate Action
This World Environment Day, take the pledge to rethink your everyday tools. Whether you’re a teacher, student, office-goer, or entrepreneur — make your mark with a pencil that makes a difference.
Because change doesn’t start with massive revolutions.
It starts with NotJustPencil.
