It really all depends on the size of the tree. According to paper manufacturer Boise Cascade, however, a cord of wood (wood stacked 4 feet by 4 feet by 8 feet, or 128 cubic feet) produces nearly 90,000 sheets of paper or 2,700 copies of a 35-page newspaper!

But how many trees does it take to make a cord of wood? "Well, that depends, of course, on the size of the trees. Here are some examples: It would take 50 trees 4 inches in diameter, 10 trees 8 inches in diameter, or 3 trees 14 inches in diameter to make a cord of wood." - The Old Farmers Almanac

On average a major metropolitan newspaper prints ca. 250,000 copies daily. By my calculations, it takes 30 to 500 trees to print the daily news. To save trees and join in the Green Initiative - unlike traditional media -The Tampa Bay Informer publishes its printed publication monthly instead of weekly or daily. Additionally, to keep readers informed they post regularly Tampa Bay News, online at www.tampabayinformer.com

Tampa Bay Informer continuously strives to brighten its reader's day with good news and inform readers on important issues concerning the community; providing solutions rather than creating chaos.
