City of Toronto Solid Waste Management Services gives us some pretty interesting information about recycling paper products on their website: • Making paper with recycled paper instead of raw wood uses 75% less energy and 50% less water • With 70 % diversion (to recycling), Toronto will save 4.5 million trees a year • From January to August 2007, on average, 74 truck loads per day of solid waste went to Michigan landfill York Region tells us that The Canadian Pulp and Paper Association states that approximately 71% of the fibre used in making Canadian pulp and paper now comes from recycled fibres that used to go into landfills.
