According to a report to the US Congress in the 1970s:
Each ton (2000 pounds) of recycled paper can save 17 trees.
However there are many types of paper. The congress report was based on Newspaper, not including other types like office, printer, copier, mail and many others.
Several sites reference conservatree.org, which uses Tom Soder's estimates in Claudia Thompson's book "Recycled Papers: The Essential Guide" (Cambridge, MA: MIT Press, 1992).
A:On average, a single ton of paper would be produced from 17 trees. An individual tree is said to produce on average 476637 sheets of paper. A:2.56 tons of trees are required to make a ton of virgin paper. Each ream would require 3.6 kg of wood.
