Making Paper and Running Printers Account for Massive Energy Consumption…and CO2 Impact

* That the US paper industry uses more energy than any other single sector; >1/3 of U.S. energy consumption? * That paper manufacture accounts for 30% of all of US greenhouse gas emissions?

Did You Know…

* That a typical laser printer consumes around 1,200 watts when it is printing a page? * That every worker accounts for approximately 1,700 wasted pages each and every year?

* That 10 mid-sized trees can sequester a ton of CO2 each and every year? * That nearly 4 billion trees are cut down each year to make paper?
