I'm going to choose A

If the recycled pulp in 2010 is going to be atleast equal to fresh pulp
and if the amount of fresh pulp is going to be greater than last year,
then (recycled pulp in 2010) >= (2xrecycled pulp last year)

I agree, best should be A.

B states that by 2010 the industry will use twice as much total pulp as last year. We know that use of fresh pulp will increase, but we don't know if by at least twice as much.

C makes sense that industry will produce more paper, but no given amount is implied.

D we have no info as to what paper products consist of (or rather, what combinations, if any, of recycled and fresh pulp are used)

E similar to D. It's a feasible assumption, but too far of a reach for the ETS.

For A, we know that at the very least, recycled pulp use in 2010 will equal that of fresh pulp use last year (which was 2x recycled pulp use).
