Recycling Statistics

  • If everyone in the United States recycled one tenth of their used newspapers, it would save twenty-five million trees a year.
  • Every ton of recycled office paper saves 380 gallons of oil.
  • Recycling glass instead of manufacturing new glass from sand reduces related air pollution by 20 percent and water pollution by 50 percent.
  • Americans recycled over two billion pounds of aluminum cans in 2000.
  • If only 10 percent of the population purchased products with less plastic packaging 10 percent of the time, it would eliminate 144 million pounds of plastic from landfills and reduce industrial pollution caused by the manufacture of plastic packaging.
