How many trees could be saved if all newspapers were recycled?
The exact number of trees that could be saved if all newspapers were recycled is difficult to determine due to various factors such as regional variations in newspaper production and recycling rates. However, according to estimates from the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) in the United States, recycling one ton of newsprint (which is equivalent to about 167 copies of a daily newspaper) can save approximately 17 trees. In the context of global newspaper production and consumption, it is estimated that recycling all newspapers could lead to the preservation of millions of trees annually.
