Paper is named for papyrus, a reed-like plant used by ancient Egyptians as
writing material more than 5000 years ago. The Chinese invented the paper that
we use 2000 years ago.
A piece of paper is really made up of tiny fibres, unlike a piece of material. The
fibres used in paper, however, are plant fibres, and there are millions of them in
one sheet. In addition to the plant fibre, dyes and additives such as resin may be
used. Dyes can make the paper different colours; resin may add weight and
texture.
Where do these fibres come from? The majority of paper is made from the plant
fibre that comes from trees. Millions are cut down, but new trees are planted in
their place. Paper may also be made from things like old rags or pieces of cloth.
Wastepaper, paper that has been made and used, can be turned into recycled
paper. This recycling process saves forest energy and reduces air and water
pollution.
