Go Ahead and Print Your Emails — the Forests Are Just Fine

"Today, forested area is declining in about one-third of the world's countries, stable in one-third, and growing in one third. Forests are stable or growing in more than 100 nations, including Australia, Canada, China, India, Japan, New Zealand, Russia, the US, and in most of Europe.

Forests in the United States have been growing for about 50 years. Today, more than 90% of US paper comes from high-yield forests planted specifically to be harvested. Company promotional campaigns to 'go electronic and save a tree' have little factual basis, at least in the US."
