It's a prank, usually pulled around Halloween, but it can be any time. It's called "TPing" the tree. The reason it's done is because it's difficult to get it out, thus making a problem for the owner of the tree. Washing it out with water will only make it worse, so manual removal may be the best way, really. That or cut down the tree, but then you're out a tree.

How many tree does it take to make 12 rolls of toilet paper?

About 384 trees. This is how many trees are used to make the toilet paper rolls that one American uses within his or her lifetime. Here is the math: "It takes 48 full grown trees to make roughly 500 rolls of toilet paper. So using that number it takes about 1/10th of an adult grown paper tree to produce 10 rolls of toilet paper. Every American in the United States, roughly 300+ million, uses at the very least 49 rolls of toilet paper a year. That is 5 trees a person."
