Connecting the Dots Between Envelopes and Clearcuts
A blog on ForestEthics recommending FSC certification over SFI for paper and wood products.
This week Office Depot, Southwest Airlines, Cricket Communications, and Hewlett-Packard joined the growing market trend against the logging industry’s greenwash program, the ‘Sustainable Forestry Initiative’ (SFI).
That brings the total to 24 prominent brands (including AT&T, United Stationers, Pitney Bowes, and Allstate) that ForestEthics—an environmental advocacy group that I work for—has persuaded to act against SFI. And our campaign against SFI also includes a growing nationwide citizens’ movement concerned about SFI, including more than 20 of North America’s leading environmental organizations and tens of thousands of individuals concerned about the long-term effect of the SFI’s program on our forests.
