The Carbon Footprint Of Paper Mail

The environmental impact of paper mail.

Deforestation, paper mill waste and runoff , carbon emissions from transportation, landfill space and even dangerous inks that foul our underground aquifers and streams, paper damages our environment. The numbers are staggering.

100 million trees are felled for paper production each year in the U.S alone. That's the equivalent of clearcutting the entire Rocky Mountain National Park every four months. (1)

According to the U.S. Postal Service, more than 100 billion pieces of paper mail are delivered in the United States each year. That's 848+ pieces per household. (2)

The more than 51 million tons of greenhouse gasses created are the equivalent of the COMBINED carbon emissions of the following states: Mississippi, Connecticut, New Hampshire, Oregon and Idaho. Or, if you prefer: Maine, Vermont, Alaska, South Dakota, Hawaii, Montana and Rhode Island. (3)

The hidden costs of postage.

Deforestation, printing, transportation, disposal. Organizations who send private or confidential information like financial statements, medical records or even marketing materials are forced to use paper since they can't send it through insecure public email or distribute it behind secure web sites. This reliance on paper mail translates into billions of dollars of economic costs that businesses are forced to pass on to consumer. Even worse, consumers are forced to receive an endless stream of paper that they must file or throw away. In fact, more than 44% of paper mail goes to the landfill unopened. (4)
