* Large Universities, such as YALE, purchase approximately 84 pounds of paper for every student. This is about 80 million sheets of paper! (If you use the math from below, this is several thousand trees).
* 1 ton of 100% unrecycled newsprint uses 12 trees. One tree makes 16.67 reams of copy paper or 8,300 sheets ... but it takes 8 trees to make low-end coated (magazine or catalog) paper.
