Each ton (2000 pounds) of recycled paper can save 17 trees, 380 gallons of oil, three cubic yards of landfill space, 4000 kilowatts of energy and 7000 gallons of water. This represents a 64% energy savings, a 58% water savings, and 60 pounds less of air pollution!
In 1997, the total world paper and paperboard production was 199,044 metric tons. It would take about 200,000 Volkswagen Beetle cars to equal this weight!
IN the last 20years, the combined usage of today's top ten paper users increased from 92million tons to 208million. So, the use of computer and others advanced technology gadget is not slowing the amount of paper we use.
Play ur part as the Earth citizen
Recycle your paper, aluminium and plastics.
Recycling 1 aluminium can saves enough energy to run a TV for 3hours.
Innovate ur lifestyle and create a paperless (as close to this idea) working/ living environment.
and reuse old things to make new things.
