"The forest makes no demands for its sustenance and extends generously of its life activity; it affords protection to all beings, offering shade even to the axeman who destroys it." 


"Between 50 and 100 acres of tropical rain forest - an area the size of ten city blocks - are destroyed every minute."


"If your office recycled 1 ton of the paper it uses, you'd be saving 17 trees and keeping 60 pounds of air pollution out of the sky."


"It takes 20 trees to keep one baby in disposable diapers for 2 years."
