Environmental Recycling Benefits and Facts
- Every ton of paper that is recycled saves 17 trees.
- Manufacturing with recycled materials, with very few exceptions, saves energy and water and produces less air and water pollution than manufacturing with virgin materials.
- Recycling conserves natural resources, such as timber, water, and minerals.
A national recycling rate of 30% reduces greenhouse gas emissions as much as removing nearly 25 million cars from the road. - Every bit of recycling makes a difference. For example, one year of recycling on just one college campus, Stanford University, saved the equivalent of 33,913 trees and the need for 636 tons of iron ore, coal, and limestone.
- Recycling creates 1.1 million U.S. jobs, $236 billion in gross annual sales and $37 billion in annual payrolls.
We care. All paper is recycled.
