How many pounds of recycled paper save a tree?
Thanks!
Answer:
1600 lbs
i dont think it depends..recycling ONE PIECE will be good enough. as long as your recycling and sticking to the commitment TO recycle..in the long run
It matters is it a small tree, medium,or large
One ton of recycled paper saves 3,700 pounds of lumber
Look up the first reference for some real informative data.
You do not save trees by recycling paper. The fact is, pulp wood is grown as a crop and the crop will be harvested. If the demand for pulp wood declines due to recycling, then new trees will not be planted. Instead the farmer will convert his field to some other crop. Maybe wheat maybe corn, maybe soy beens.
Recycling paper to save trees makes as much sense as recycling bread to save wheat.
