Paper is a man-made product manufactured from cellulose fibres which are moistened and pressed together into sheets, then flattened and dried.
Paper of one type or another has been in use for about two thousand years, in different cultures, for writing upon.
Paper is now also used for printing and packaging.
If sustainable wood is used as the source of cellulose, paper production can be sustainable, although bleach used to make it white can be a source of pollution when discharged into rivers or seas.
