How much water is used to make one ton of paper?
Ans. There are paper plants which have Zero Effluent Discharge. That means these plants reuse all their water. If no water is reused, a paper plant may use as much as 300-400 tonne, or cubic meters, of water to make one short ton (2000 lbs.) of paper. However, most water-efficient paper plants in North America and Europe use 10-25 tonne, or cubic meters, of water per short ton of paper. Converting to English units of measure, producing one ton (2000 lbs.) of paper requires 2642-6604 gallons of water. And since one ton of paper makes about 400 reams, one ream of paper requires approximately 7-17 gallons of water.

One ton paper make about 400 reams of paper. So one ream will take about 20, 000/400 = 50 litres.
Trillion billions
2 trees Hmmm...is this a trick question? A ream of paper made of recycled paper wouldn't need any trees at all. And in any event, I doubt it would take two trees to make a ream of paper...recycled or new.
Ream of paper not rim of paper in one ream There are 500 sheets of paper
It is 24 or 25 pieces of paper, it can depend. The definition of a quire is 1/20th of a 'ream'. A ream of writing paper is 500 sheets, a ream of 'short' paper is 480 sheets, hence the minor difference.

Ream is the answer
With reference to paper count 1 ream of paper contains 500 sheets.
500 sheets
no i don't really know
It depends on what you get, but you can get some nice paper for about $10 per ream.
500 sheets of paper is the International Standard for a ream of paper.
The collective noun 'ream' is used for a ream of paper or a ream of bureaucrats.
A twentieth of a ream is equal to 25 sheets of paper. A standard ream typically contains 500 sheets.
