Did You Know?

Half the Earth's forests have been logged, and only one-fifth of old-growth forests remain intact.

Replacing one roll of conventional toilet paper with a 100 percent recycled roll in each U.S. household would save 423,900 trees.

Replacing 1 ton of virgin paper with 1 ton of 30 percent postconsumer paper saves the equivalent of 7.2 trees; replacing with 1 ton of 100 percent postconsumer paper saves the equivalent of 24 trees.
