is it better to burn old paperwork or trash it ?

Question by Robbinlee: is it better to burn old paperwork or trash it ?
I have a bunch of old research work & paperwork from over 10 years ago. Some of it is on colored paper (blue mostly) I’ve moved into a much smaller place & can’t keep this anymore. I have a very nice old fireplace. I’m tempted to burn this stuff rather than dump it in the dumpster. I do have a crappy shredder so that’s possible but really don’t think or care if anyone goes dumpster diving. Ideas ?
