Americans spend ~$31 billion on tissue products every year.
The U.S. has one of the world's highest per-capita tissue consumption rates — about 141 rolls of toilet paper per person annually, roughly 3x the global average. That demand drives massive virgin pulp logging in Canada's boreal forest.
Europe uses ~40% recycled fiber in tissue — the US uses almost none.
After consumer campaigns in the 1990s-2000s, European tissue makers shifted away from virgin pulp. US brands like Charmin still lag far behind. Advocates say the same pressure that changed Europe could now reshape the American market.
