On the entire Internet no-one has yet posted that phrase "trees cut in the world each day"! So this is quite a splendid question.
To get to the bottom of this one must punch phrase: "acres of forest" for each country + then add those up. The answer be staggering: Technically billions of trees must be cut each and every day !

Of the two sorts between the replenish-able species (pines, poplar) and the non replenish able. (Rain forests, redwood, certain species oak will be sorely missed by ecosystem) are non replenish-able.

USA ( land of the great mighty Oaks) & Canada grow faster & replace quicker but each day there are areas deforested there that wont grow back. Now for fifteen years actually the rain-forest of Amazon has been on the top list of frequent logging. Brazil is losing twelve thousand acres of tropical forest each day (A football field). Congo Basin's 470 million acres each year.
Takes some extensive adding of each and every country's acres per day, month or year.

I dont know what dedline the other lady is talking about! In my town there are two sawmills, both hardwood, and at least five trucks go past my house each day with a full load! And these trees are comming from three surrounding forrestries! My dad was a sawmiller his whole life ,then i married into a family who owned a sawmill, and was in that family for ten years,needless to say i was a thorn in that familys side!, do you know that loggers are supposed to replace every tree that is cut down with a new seedling and not once in my memory or that of my father was that actually done , so so much for rules and regulations. And its not just the tee that they cut down its the bush that surrounds that one tree, and the ones cut down because they are in the way!! You really shouldent of got me started on this i could go on all day!! Its discusting the way we rape our earth on a daily basis!

Far to many
In Qld the government gave them many months from 2004 until dec 2006 before the law came in & that was a mistake because tons were cut down before the deadline date.
that was for massive tree clearing I've no idea how many can still be cut down but they still can be & that is bad for the earth

you should clarify this question. Like trees for paper and lumber products or for clearing land for farming like in south america? also you should clarify where you are interested in as well.
