Recycle
Recycling 1 ton of paper saves enough energy to power a house for six months!
If 13,600 tons of paper is recycled 231,200 trees are saved, 44,800 cubic yards of landfill space is saved, and 95,200,000 gallons of water is saved.
It takes 17 trees to create 1 ton of paper.
Recycling half of the world's paper would save 20,000,000 acres of trees.
One person uses 580 pounds of paper every year.
Out of all garbage in a landfill, 40% is paper.
