Wendy,
 The hardest thing about getting paper out of schools is most of the software 
they use is 'paper' based. Office, PDF's etc are all 'paper based' - say A4 
which is exactly the wrong way to fit on your computer screen so you have to 
print it!
Until people can be taught not to use 'paper' based formats things will always 
be printed - a bit of a vicious circle. 
The answer is of course is html
