Trees

"The airline projects EFBs will save nearly 16 million sheets of paper a year which is equivalent to more than 1,900 trees not cut down. Saving 326,000 gallons of jet fuel a year reduces greenhouse gas emissions by 3,208 metric tons."
 
How did United Airlines do this? By replacing their giant pilot flight manuals with iPads.
 
Those paper flight manuals are very, very heavy.
