Green Printing — Pulp (Non) Fiction: Fighting for Our Forests
Mills have long used recycled fiber, as much as is collected, and it is not clear that more demand and higher prices would necessarily result in higher collection rates. If a few customers demand more recycled content, unless collection and recovery increased, the net effect would be zero because there would simply be less available for other products and other customers.
