Paper Recycling Facts
If we recycled all newspapers, we could save over 250 million trees each and every year.
Twenty-four trees are cut down to make one ton of newspaper.
The average UK family throws away six trees worth of paper in their household bin a year.
Recycled paper produces 73% less air pollution than if it was made from raw materials.
Paper and card make up about a fifth of the typical household dustbin. About half of this consists of newspapers and magazines.
Each Christmas as much as 83 square kilometres of wrapping paper ends up in UK rubbish bins, enough to cover an area larger than Guernsey.
Although, figures could be much worse. Luckily, two-thirds of paper is recycled in the UK, making it one of the most widely recycled waste items nationally.
