Using electronic books or computer based examinations will decrease the need of papers leading to save our trees. By handling a gadget, pupils don’t need to submit anything with paper to the teacher, but it can be done just by using email or online website developed by their school as the education platform. If the paper is not needed anymore, the logging activities will decrease as one of the main product of it is papers. For example, logging activity in Kalimantan was being halved since Tjiwi Kimia, one of the biggest paper company in Indonesia, decrease their production once after more than 20 schools in Surabaya stopped to use a paper in 2017.

For instance, one of the famous international school in Surabaya which held a computer based examination for students was being surprised when they knowed that the students have same answers to the different type of questions, it occurred in 2010. After interviewing with some students, they realized that the students only type the tittle of question in internet and find the answer without read it in detail.
