Read the passage below: It is estimated that around four billion trees are cut down each year to make paper. Perhaps that number would have been acceptable 20 years ago, but, in this day and age, it's unacceptable. What makes today so different than 20 years ago? The digital revolution. With everything from medical files, to newspapers, and textbooks offered on digital platforms, why should we continue to destroy the natural environment for the sake of making paper? Governments should make laws limiting paper manufacturers in order to end a practice that is wasteful, destroys rainforests, and harms the environment.
