A typical ream of paper, which contains 500 sheets, is estimated to come from about 1/6 of a tree, depending on the type of tree and the size of the paper. This translates to roughly 15-20% of a tree for the production of one ream of paper. However, these figures can vary based on factors such as tree species and paper production methods.

How much water is used to make a ream of paper?

It takes 1 tree to make a paper bag. But it is saving if you don't use them if you don't you save billions of trees.That is an overstatement of someone not understanding how it works. Most trees cut are used to make lumber to built houses, 50% of the tree (residuals) make wood chips to make paper, diaper, magazines, cups, box etc. Finally wood is a renewable resource that is most helpful to the environment WHILE it is growing. Plastic is NOT renewable, so is steel.

How many trees are in a roll of paper towels?

Approx. 18 ounces is not accurate. An efficient plant (in North America and Europe) uses 10 to 25 ton or m3 of water per ton of paper. If your roll of paper weighs 1/2 a pound it takes 6 to 15 gallons of water; and we know that 6 (US) gallons is 768 ounces. If no water is reused and/or re-circulated, plant may use as much as 300 - 400 ton or cubic meter of water to make one ton of paper. A one pound roll of paper needs 300- 400 pounds of water (or 38 - 50 gallons).
