We recycle the newspapers, yes I'm using the computer now but I like to read my local news, but I save stacks of the regular newsprint [not the slick ads] when I have a gardening project. Layers of newspaper & even cardboard make great biodegradeble mulch when trying to start a new bed. Put the paper down, wet it and put a layer of soil & regular mulch on top - instant flower bed. I like to 'make' a bed then wait until the next season to refresh it & plant, Go to your local library [the best recycler of 'paper' in the world] & ask for a book titled "Lasagna Gardening." I do not remember the author's name.
