Sadly it isnt too much.
Still many many trees are being cut down. We cant stop that for sure.
As for recycling, it pays to mention that each time you recycle, the fibres of the paper get weaker and weaker, so there are actually limits to recycling.
However, although one person recycling doesnt do much, many people recycling accumulates.
Its about minimising damage. You cant ever stop cutting down trees. Sadly its not how the world is run

I don't know, but if mankind keeps cutting so many trees every year, one day there will be no trees and the pollution will kill all living creatures. May God help us all!!
