Here is your answer ,

One of the best ways to conserve water is to buy recycled goods, and to recycle goods when you have finished with them. Recycling a pound of paper, less than the weight of your average newspaper, saves about 3.5 gallons of water. Buying recycled paper products saves water too, as it takes about six gallons of water to produce a dollar worth of paper. (National Geographic, 2014)

Conventional paper-manufacturing processes require 40 m3 to produce one tonne of paper, most of which is a result of manufacturing virgin pulp. By re-using fibres a number of times, manufacturing recycled paper consumes around 24 m3 per tonne – a saving of around 47%.

Producing one tonne of recycled paper uses 23,400 fewer litres* of water than producing non-recycled paper this is the equivalent to 377 average showers.

As a lot of water is used in making paper. So, when we recycle the paper then  the wastage of paper is less which will also help in saving water.

Hope it will help you ^_^
