As I always say, trees for paper are a crop with a long growth cycle. If you don't need the paper who will plant the trees?

What proportion of planting is for paper, I'd expect wood used in construction to be a greater demand?

According to the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO), globally around 40 percent of the annual industrial wood harvest is processed for paper and paperboard.

The pulp and paper industry is the fourth largest industrial user of energy, consuming 6.4 EJ in 2005, and a significant emitter of greenhouse gas (source EIA report 2008).

Paper consumption has risen by 400% in the past 40 years. 35% of trees harvested are due to paper manufacture.

6.5+ million trees were cut down to make 16 billion paper cups used by US consumers, only for coffee, in 2006.

Paper waste accounts for up to 40% of total waste in the United States. 71.6 tons per year.

Thanks for that. Crazy 'cups' statistics.

Are you saying they also update their social media presence using paper?

It's known as a letter to the editor!
