US Toilet Paper Use Threatens Old Forests

Americans use far more toilet paper than people from other countries. On average, Americans use . The numbers can go as high as 50 pounds (22.7 kilograms) per year for “tissue”. This is 50% more than what is used .

Compared to many other countries, Americans seem to like their toilet paper very, very soft. But it can also be made from recycled paper. But toilet paper made from recycled paper is usually a little bit rougher. For that reason, many of the large US toilet paper makers choose to use brand-new soft wood. Sadly, one of the best places to find that is in Canada’s boreal forest.

The NRDC and Stand.earth say that some of the largest makers of toilet paper in the US are cutting down great areas of Canada’s boreal forest to make their toilet paper.

The loss of this forest threatens the animals that live in it. The forest is also hugely important for helping control carbon dioxide pollution, one of the main causes of global warming.
