Find out how much cellulose is made by all the plants in the biosphere and compare it with how much of paper is manufactured by man and hence what is the consumption of plant material by man annually. What is the loss of vegetation.


Cellulose is made by all plants. Almost 100 billion tonnes of cellulose is produced by all the plants in the biosphere. About 400 million tonnes of paper is used by man in a year and we consume most of the manufactured paper. Therefore the loss of vegetation is very high and we need to use the resources wisely instead of indiscriminate use.
