National Forest Products Week: AF&PA Sustainability Goals
The American Forest & Paper Association (AF&PA) believes that sustainable manufacturing practices are the foundation of the U.S. pulp, paper, packaging, tissue and wood products manufacturing industry.
Learn more about the sustainability goals AF&PA is setting for the paper and forest products industry with their “Better Practices, Better Planet 2020” initiative for National Forest Product Week. These goals include: energy efficiency, paper recovery for recycling, greenhouse gas emissions, worker safety, sustainable forestry, and water use. Some of these goals have already been surpassed as the industry seeks to maintain and grow its contributions economically, environmentally, and socially.
Visit their interactive website to learn more about these goals and to read about AF&PA members’ sustainability progress. You can also read the full, detailed report here.
