gy prevents about 181 million metric tons of CO2emissions from entering the atmosphere each year. That’s roughly equal to removing 35 million cars from the road annually. Papermaking, Biomass And Climate Change So how does paper manufacturing fit into the overall picture when it comes to GHG emissions and their impact on climate change? The pulp and paper sector was among the first to take voluntary action to reduce GHGs, so it’s no surprise that U.S. paper mills and manufacturing facilities have a solid record of GHG reduction. According to the U.S. EPA’s most recent data, emissions from the sector have steadily declined in recent years, down 21 percent between 2011 and 2021. This reduction is attributed to the increasing use of carbon-neutral biomass fuel, the switch from coal and oil to less carbon-intensive fossil fuels such as natural gas, and technology enhance- ments that improved overall energy efficiency. Is paper manufacturing a major contributor to climate change? Contrary to activist claims and pop culture head- lines, the answer is clearly, “no,” and the data supports this finding. According to the EPA, the U.S. pulp and paper in- dustry is responsible for less than 0.6 percent of total U.S. greenhouse gas emissions. Kathi Rowzie is the President of Two Sides North America.
