The amount of paper we throw away each year could heat 50,000 homes for 20 years.
•Americans throw away enough paper to make a 12 foot high wall stretching from New York to Los Angeles.
100 million tons of wood could be saved each year if we recycled all our paper.
17 trees saved can absorb 250 pounds of carbon dioxide from the air each year; burning those same trees would produce 1500 pounds.
Recycling paper generates 74% less air pollution and uses 50% less water.
•1.5 tons of recycled paper is used to make construction products such as roofing paper and flooring.
Reduce, Reuse, Recycle!!!
