Reduce Your Impact on Endangered Forests
tips provided by Forest Ethics
Believe it or not, paper and wood are still being made from endangered forests. Avoid such products by using less paper and wood, and by buying products that are post-consumer recycled and/or from Forest Stewardship Council certified forests.
Businesses can provide guidance to their employees and suppliers by adopting a sustainable wood and paper procurement policy.
Climate changes also threatens forest ecosystems—and deforestation and other logging contribute roughly 20% of global greenhouse gas emissions. You can help by reducing your carbon footprint and supporting more effective climate policies.
