The production and use of paper has a number of adverse effects on the environment which are known collectively as paper pollution. Pulp mills contribute to air, water and land pollution. Discarded paper is a major component of many landfill sites, accounting for about 35 percent by weight of municipal solid waste (before recycling). Even paper recycling can be a source of pollution due to the sludge produced during de-inking.
Perhaps the most obvious examples of a negative human impact on the environment is water pollution. It's obvious we need water to survive but few people realize how much we need and just how much is available. Consider these facts from the United Nations Environment Programme: 1  Of all the water on Earth, only 2.5% of it is freshwater. 2  Of that 2.5%, less than 1% is available to us.  Humans each require up to 13 gallons (50 litres) a day of fresh water for drinking, cooking and cleaning.
