Americans throw away enough writing and office paper annually to build a wall 12 feet high from Los Angeles to New York City.
US businesses consume an estimated 21 million tons of paper every year, the equivalent of approximately 350 million trees.
Every Ton of Recycled Paper saves 17 trees, 4,100KWH of Energy, 7,000 gallons of water, 3 cubic yards of Landfill, and reduces air pollution by 60 pounds.
