Making Paper

When a tree is cut down 8% of that tree becomes pulp and that 8% pulp represents 4% of the tree's value. Pulp, as used for paper, is essentially a waste product, if it were not turned into paper in many situations would just be burned. No tree farming companies harvest for the primary purpose of paper, although there are subcontractors who certainly sub-specialize.
