Stop Flushing our Forests Today!

Kimberly-Clark, maker of Kleenex tissue and Cottonelle toilet paper, recently adopted a new policy that steers the company away from sourcing fibers from old-growth and primary forests, like the primary forest in the Canadian boreal, to make its products. 

P&G is one of the world’s biggest toilet paper manufacturers – yet your company continues to make its toilet paper almost entirely from forest fiber, fueling forest degradation. 

Widespread industrial clearcutting for forest products like Charmin toilet paper is destroying more than one million acres of the boreal each year. 

P&G has a critical role to play in saving the boreal. I am extremely disappointed that P&G continues to lag behind its peers with irresponsible sourcing policies that drive deforestation and exacerbate climate change instead of investing in more sustainable alternatives. 

Please improve your company’s sourcing practices if we are to have any hope of preserving this irreplaceable, vital forest and combating the climate crisis. 

Thank you.
