1. Tree- This serves as the best "starting" point since this is where majority of the paper would be created from. The cellulose and lignin fibers are separated to help create the paper.
2. Paper mill- This is where the paper creation begins and when they will dye the paper to become white if needed. Also here they will remove the pulp and lignin.
3. Paper- After the paper mill, the paper is now created. The paper can be used for notebooks or even cardboard depending on the paper mill.
4. Garbage- After the paper is used there are usually recycle bins for paper set up every where. After putting the paper in here it will then be sent to a specific processing plant in order to reuse the paper.
5. Processing Plant- This is to recycle the paper after it has already been used. Paper can only be processed six times after that the fibers become too small to be processed.
