Trees Saved vs Annual Paper Reams Used
Fórmula
## How to Calculate Paper Savings Reducing paper consumption saves trees, water, and energy. ### Environmental Factors per Pound of Paper - **Trees**: ~1 tree per 100 lbs of paper - **Water**: ~3 gallons per pound - **CO2**: ~3.3 lbs CO2 per pound of virgin paper ### Formula **Paper Saved (lbs) = Reams * Reduction % * 5 lbs/ream** A standard ream is 500 sheets (5 lbs). The average US office worker uses 10,000 sheets per year.
Ejemplo Resuelto
An office using 20 reams/year reducing by 50% at $8/ream.
- 01Reams saved: 20 * 50% = 10 reams
- 02Paper weight: 10 * 5 = 50 lbs
- 03Trees saved: 50 / 100 = 0.5 trees
- 04Water saved: 50 * 3 = 150 gallons
- 05Cost saved: 10 * $8 = $80
