Viva La Revolution!

The Benefits of using recycled paper are staggering! By choosing to purchase recycled paper products as opposed to products that use virgin paper fibers we are able to reduce: energy consumption, greenhouse gas emissions, particulate emissions, waste water, solid waste and wood consumption.

In a recent report by the Environmental Paper Network, it is estimated that 42% of the industrial wood harvest is used to make paper—a sobering fact given that forests store roughly 50 percent of all terrestrial carbon, making them one of our most important safeguards against climate change. Old-growth and mature, second-growth natural forests store much larger amounts of carbon than newly planted stands and once logged, require decades to recover the original amount of carbon they contained.
