Every day of the year throughout the world, about twenty million paper bags and
newspapers are screwed and thrown away. Making paper requires a lot of wood pulp and the
work of millions of workers. Many countries have had plants to recycle waste paper to save
money and labor. In countries where there is the cooperation of the public, paper mills

recycle as much as sixty percent of waste paper. Their simple work is to take away the ink,
crush and make it into pulp again. For every ton of recycled newsprint, twelve trees can be
saved. We can insist that the more paper people save, the more trees are preserved.
