lakwhut, point of information: The majority of wood grown for pulp (paper applications boxes, tp, paper plates etc) come from plantations. Timber (alder) is grown on plantations and cut and replanted based on the end use. (For the purpose of plywood and construction different strains of alder are planted and harvested at different times.) Timber for pulp and building are managed renewable resources. Plastic never goes away. If you hate paper straws so much invest in some silicone ones or stainless steel.
