Nov 3rd Call to Action: Kleenex-=Kleercut

[Guest guest]

Hi Folks,

 

 

 

As you read this message, Kimberly-Clark <http://www.kleercut.net/> is

clear-cutting ancient forests to make Kleenex and toilet paper. As the

world's largest manufacturer of tissue products, K-C is in a unique

position to damage or destroy entire ecosystems. Only 20% of our ancient

forests remain and they are too precious to throw away or flush down the

toilet!

 

 

 

*Join Greenpeace to take on the tissue tyrants: *Greenpeace is working

with folks throughout North America to protect these endangered forests

and the people and wildlife living in them by mobilizing pressure

against Kimberly-Clark.

 

 

 

You can help!

Some businesses make an effort to meet the needs of their customers.

Then there's Kimberly-Clark. If they can make a tissue that limits the

spread of the flu, certainly they can make a tissue that doesn't flush

away old-growth forests. It's obvious that the 'Kleercut' campaign is

being discussed at the highest levels of the Kimberly-Clark corporation.

That's a great start, but now it's time to increase the pressure so the

company stops discussing and starts acting!

 

 

 

See you in the trenches,
