Dating as far back to the time of the ancient Egyptians, paper has had a long, rich history that continues to span today into modern day life. But even with advances in digital technology and “paperless” offices, the paper consumption in many parts of the world is on the rise, with expanding paper production and pulp wood logging threatening the last remaining natural forests and the people and wildlife that depend on them. The processing of pulp and paper also consumes vast amounts of energy, contributing to global warming and releasing a wide range of pollutants into the environment.

The WWF Guide to Buying Eco Friendly Paper - together with WWF’s Paper Scorecard that assesses the environmental footprint of paper products - provides useful insights and practical tips on what can be done to minimize the negative social and environmental impacts of paper production.

Find out what you and your company can do to help save paper and stop forest destruction and degradation through buying eco friendly paper.
