Is there a more environmentally friendly (responsible), sustainable alternative? Thank you. ;o)

Hi there, Antonia -- Alice Medrich has a nice article on the site (5 Handy Tips For Baking with Parchment Paper), which points out that parchment paper can actually be reused a few times before it goes bad. Of course, you can also look for brands that use recycled fibers. The other option is no liner and old fashioned elbow grease :)

I realize you asked this 11 months ago, but what the heck, the environmental aspect to kitchen business is important, so here goes:
As Julie Myers said, parchment paper is reusable, and I've discovered that lots of recipes (buttery or coconut-oily cookies, for example) call for parchment paper when it is utterly un-needed. And lots of pans will be 100% with a quick scrub, if soaked overnight. Lastly, some of my sheets are ok in the DW.
