Use of Tissue Paper is one of the vital cause of Carbon Emission/ Footprint in the World.
In 2018, global tissue consumption reached 38.7m tonnes and is approaching the benchmark of 40m tonnes this year; in 1993, the market was a tiny 15.5 million tonnes. Tissue has passed newsprint in market size, something that would have been hard to believe 20 years ago.

life cycle emitting 568 kg CO2 eq more per kilogram of tissue paper. GHG emissions from the wood pulping alone were 559 g CO2 eq per kilogram of tissue paper, three times higher than waste paper collection and transportation.

Total 21,633,300 kg CO2 per year 2018 or avarage 2.9 CO2 per person
Note : 17 trees (11 meters tall) to make about 1000 Kg of paper. 0.017 trees per kg of tissue paper.

Change the habit of using of Tissue Paper and switch on to Better, Hygienic, Eco-friendly alternative (eg. Water, etc.)

The simplest answer that I can give you is that it takes about 17 trees (11 meters tall) to make about 1000 Kg of paper. 0.017 trees per kg of tissue paper.
