Paper and Ink Facts
- 10,000 pieces of paper are printed every year by the average worker in the United States
- More than 500 million Ink and toner cartridges are estimated to find a resting place in landfills each year
- The pulp and paper industry is the second largest consumer of energy in the United States
- Americans generate 85 million tons of paper that end up as waste, which is three times the amount is was 50 years ago
What will 10 million pages get you?
- 2500 trees
- 56,000 gallons of oil
- 450 cubic yards of landfill
- 595,000 KW of energy
Those are some nice stats you may say….and sure, it would be nice to save some trees and take up less space at the landfill, but how would going paperless DIRECTLY affect my business?
