How many pieces of paper will one tree make?



Since trees are different sizes, it would be difficult to say how much paper comes from one tree. According to one paper manufacturer, however, a cord of wood measuring 4 feet by 4 feet by 8 feet—or 128 cubic feet—produces nearly 90,000 sheets of bond-quality paper or 2,700 copies of a 35-page newspaper.
This information was taken from the Boise Cascade Corporation website. The Mead Corporation website also has useful facts and information about papermaking.
