What publishers can do

Hunting and large scale habitat loss have already eliminated Wolverines from much of Southern Scandinavia.

Greenpeace is calling on the publishing industry to take action to phase out the use of paper coming from the destruction of ancient forests and to adopt environmentally and socially responsible procurement policies. The way to achieve this is to buy paper that contains recycled and/or FSC fibres.

Buy recycled paper with a high post-consumer waste content to help take pressure off the world's ancient forests

Buy FSC paper to ensure that the fibre comes from forests that are well managed to strong ecological and social criteria
