## 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.
