But there's always a downside of everything. Millions of trees are cut every year to make papers, which has led to deforestation and loss of sanctuaries for many animal species. Although, with the increase in research & development and technology, usage many other raw materials are being used as more environment friendly alternatives for paper making. The present review focuses on past studies on substitutes of wood raw materials for pulp making and paper production. The review paper is qualitative in nature. Secondary data was collected from past journals, articles, websites and conference proceedings. The review documented the processing of raw material used for paper making other than wood, which includes stones, walnut shells, ground nut shells, animal manure, leather, rice straws, coir fiber, seaweed, algae, grass, softwood fibers, bagasse, cabbage, spinach, guava, potatoes, radish leaves, banana peel, pineapple leaves, orange, lemon and other citrus fruits.

Kitsch is quirky, out of the box and overboard with emotions while on the other hand minimalism is subtle, simplified, reduced to its basic form. Indian folk art is a third category which influence on a person's lifestyle as most of the Indian people prefer ethnicity in their homes as it keeps them closest to their roots. The aim of the study was to find out the preference of kitsch, minimalism, and Indian folk art among lifestyle of young adults. The total sample was selected to be 155 out of which, 60 fashion students were selected from the UIFT, Panjab University; 40 students were selected from NIIFT, Mohali and 40 students were selected from home science college, Sector 10, Chandigarh, to fill the first questionnaire. A second questionnaire was prepared with suitable items which were filled by brands working with the chosen art forms in Chandigarh. The survey concluded that Minimalism is the most preferred art form among young adults as it is good for casual wear and gives preference to comfort followed by Indian folk art and the kitsch. Indian folk art have a bright future in Indian fashion market but Kitsch is least favored and thought to be least suitable for suitable for Indian fashion market. It seems to do well in accessory section and home furnishing but because it's flashy, it tends to gain attention.
