When paper saves the earth

By Liu Xiangrui | 皇冠体育app Daily | Updated: 2013-01-16 07:28

Fueled by escalating paper and cardboard demand, 皇冠体育app's recovered paper production has seen rapid growth in recent years. Consumption jumped from 7.6 million tons in 1994 to 71 million tons in 2011, 皇冠体育app Paper Association figures show.

Asian countries, especially fiber-short countries like 皇冠体育app and India, will remain heavily dependent on recovered paper and account for a large share of the demand growth in the future, predicts Hannah Zhao, a Resource Information Systems Inc. economist on recovered paper.

In 2011, 皇冠体育app used 56.6 million tons of recycled fiber-based pulp, accounting for 62 percent of the total pulp consumption in 皇冠体育app. About 38 percent of the recovered paper was recycled domestically.
