document.write("PAPER FACTS
Global paper use has grown more than six-fold since 1950.
One ton of uncoated virgin (non-recycled) printing and office paper uses 24 trees.
One ton of paper = 400 reams = 200,000 sheets. 1 tree makes 16.67 reams of copy
paper or 8,333 sheets.
One ton of paper requires the use of 98 tons of various resources. Production of 1 ton of copy paper
produces 2,278 lb of solid waste.
One fifth of all wood harvested in the world ends up in paper.
It takes 2 to 3.5 tons of trees to make one ton of paper.
Pulp and paper is the 5th largest industrial consumer of energy in the world, using as much power to
produce a ton of product as the iron and steel industry.
In some countries, including the United States, paper accounts for nearly 40 percent of all municipal solid
waste.
Making paper uses more water per ton than any other product in the world.
Recycling Paper:
One ton of recycled paper uses: 64% less energy, 50% less water, 74% less air pollution, saves 17 trees
and creates 5 times more jobs than one ton of paper products from virgin wood pulp.
One ton of recycled paper saves 3,700 pounds of lumber and 24,000 gallons of water.
Recycling 1 ton of paper saves 17 trees (35’ tall), 2 barrels of oil (enough fuel to run the average car for
1260 miles), 4100 kilowatts of energy (enough power for the average home for 6 months).
