EIM Trivia Enron Industrial Markets currently owns two paper mills - Garden State Paper in Garfield, NJ and Papiers Stadacona in Quebec City, Quebec, Canada. The combined annual newsprint capacity is 620,000 tonnes, which roughly translates to 137 billion square feet. If you assume that the average width of a newspaper page is 25 inches, then this translates into Enron producing enough newsprint in a year to get us to Jupiter and half-way back to Earth. Papiers Stadacona also produces approximately 100,000 tonnes per year of directory paper. This translates into roughly 50 million telephone and trade directory books. That's a lot of phone numbers!
