3 So….we’d like to know Q: How would recycling affect the sustainability of the Life Cycle Analysis (LCA)? Raw material extraction Transport Material processing Primary production Secondary production Disposal/fate Recycling

4 For example, for Time magazine… Estimates show that for the 37,477 tons of Time magazine produced annually, 11, 746 tons of that is recycled.

5 So…what’s next? Alternatives to deforestation: Use of hemp – Illegal Kenaf - difficulty/cost for conversion of current mills for production
