In 2015, 66.8% of paper consumed in the U.S. was recovered for recycling, reports the American Forest & Paper Association (AF&PA). The annual paper recovery rate has nearly doubled since 1990 and the industry has set a goal to exceed 70% paper recovery for recycling by 2020. "Industry efforts, the voluntary, market-driven recovery system, and the millions of Americans who make the decision to recycle every day have helped to keep U.S. paper recovery at continuously high levels," comments AF&PA President and CEO Donna Harman.
