Of coupons made at the expense of 13.62 million trees, only 1%

In the evening we go through the karaoke shops and taverns and you will see "there are coupons" and something that deals coupons that you can use immediately. Not limited to this, you can get discount coupons by shopping at supermarkets, drinking and eating at restaurants, receiving tissues and leaflets distributed at street corners.

Some people collect and use it well, but many people do not end up in the end but are throwing it in the garbage box. Of coupon siteSavingStarAccording to the information summarized, only 1% of the coupons issued in large quantities are actually being used. By the way, the coupon here refers to the coupon brochure of a newspaper fold.

First of all, in order to make coupons, paper for printing is needed, so the logging of the forest is done. Every year, the number of trees consumed for coupons is as much as 1.362 million.


The timber is brought to the paper mill. From 13.62 million trees, there are 227 million roll paper, which turns into 113.5 billion sheets of paper. Earth's population will soon be 7 billion people, so even if you give out 16 coupons to everyone, it's still a surplus calculation.


3110 billion coupons were printed in 2009, and 332 billion coupons were printed in 2010.


The coupons are brought to a newspaper printing factory with over 1,000, folded into newspapers, printed on paper, and delivered to the house.


However, 99% of this coupon is thrown away without being used.


The mountain of this unused coupon is also the amount of 20 freight cars every week.


Only lucky 1% coupons will be used at the shop.


Even if it is said that "From 13 million trees" is not an image at all, in Japan, for example, since the number of trees in Shinjuku Gyoen is over 10,000 trees, it is 1,300 Shinjuku Gyoen National Garden. I understood only that it was wide anyhow.

McDonald's is a company that often offers coupons. I think that it is unnecessary for paper coupons to be OK if it is OK with screen presentation of mobile phones and smart phones, but as I heard about that, it is a rule that paper coupons have to be collected at stores , It can not be accepted only by presenting the screen of the mobile phone. Rules are for counting the number of coupons used, but details were not understood at the counter. Currently, we are promoting application correspondence to smartphones, but it was said that thinking that there is a part that is too early to keep up with catching up and that it is causing inconvenience.
