A ream of paper will kill how many tree?

The production of a ream of paper typically requires about 6 to 10% of a tree, depending on the type of paper and the tree's size. On average, a standard ream contains 500 sheets, and it takes around 24 trees to produce one ton of paper. Therefore, a single ream of paper is estimated to represent a small fraction of a tree's biomass rather than directly killing a whole tree. This highlights the importance of sustainable forestry practices in paper production.
