There are approximately 1,000,000,000 pounds of cardboard recycled each year.Why so much?Because everything is now mostly recycled to save our planet instead of polluting the earth
There is no limit on the number of times cardboard can be recycled. Cardboard will lose it's integrity as it is continuously recycled though.
Many items are made with recycled materials. Most of the paper products and cardboard contain at least a portion of recycled material. Plastic items can also contain recycled content and are usually marked.
not much paper

Very few trees are used in the production of cardboard, because just about all cardboard is recycled. Cardboard is made by moistening and heat drying already used cardboard. It is first made into huge rolls of paper and then layered to form thicker cardboard.
One can easily refurbish recycled materials to make a CD shelf. Cardboard boxes makes good foundation material and can be crafted into many different forms.
2000 pounds of recycled paper saves 17 trees 9000 pounds of recycled paper saves 17 x 9000/2000 = 76.5 trees In practical terms this would be stated as saving 76 trees.
The life of a cardboard box begins in the forest where softwood trees are cut down, stripped of their bark, and turned into wood chips. These wood chips are reduced even further into cellulose fibers in the pulping process. Natural oils are separated by adding fibers with water and creating a slurry. Now the fibers can be pressed and rolled into paper. Every step of the way has a large carbon footprint from burning fossil fuels in transportation, manufacturing, and processing. There is also a large amount of water used and wastewater produced. After using the cardboard box for its intended purpose, it can be recycled and used in the slurry process along with natural fibers. It might also end up in a compost bin or landfill. One ton of cardboard requires 3 tons of wood, which is a good reason to reuse as many times as possible and then recycle. BoxGiver is a great place to give your cardboard boxes away.
