Solutions to Boreal Forest destruction

Greenpeace is actively working on solutions to reverse the continuous loss of habitat in the Boreal forest. 

We provide consumers with up-to-date information on purchases that will reduce the impact on the forest, exert pressure on companies that use ancient forests in irresponsible ways, help publishers find ancient forest friendly papers and develop a forest management certification system that ensures old growth forests are not clearcut. Every small step builds towards ensuring a sustainable future for the Boreal forest.

Our objective is to foster the creation of long-term sustainable jobs with greater local control of resources that focus on the needs of future generations. Our interest is in seeing the ecology of the Boreal forest maintained over time, and we do not feel that this is contrary to ensuring that Canadians get the highest return possible from our public forests, instead of simply shipping raw logs and disposable tissue products beyond our borders.
