Shocking new photos released today reveal the existence of a massive stockpile of old-growth logs that are destined to become disposable products like Kleenex tissue and Cottonelle toilet paper for tissue giant Kimberly-Clark Corporation (K-C). The logs originate from the Ogoki Forest, the single most ecologically valuable area left in Ontario’s southern Boreal Forest and the site of growing controversy.

Greenpeace's Kleercut campaigners continued their efforts to stop Kimberly-Clark from destroying ancient forests to make its disposable products by locking down a Kleenex factory in Fullerton, CA.
Tell Kimberly-Clark: Don't Blow Ancient Forests on Kleenex!
There's no excuse for destroying ancient forests -- especially when the forests are used to make disposable products such as tissues and toilet paper. That's why a growing chorus of customers, companies, and universities are asking Kimberly-Clark to:
Stop purchasing fiber from endangered forests;
Drastically increase the amount of recycled fiber they use for all of their tissue products, including Kleenex brand toilet paper, facial tissue and napkins; and
Buy all non-recycled fiber from Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) certified forests to ensure it is produced in a responsible manner.
In an attempt to allay concerns over its role in the destruction of endangered forests, Kimberly-Clark recently released a new fiber policy. Unlike other corporate fiber policies, Kimberly-Clark's has a number of fatal flaws, including:
No safeguards for endangered forests, including the North American Boreal;
No agreements to increase the use of recycled paper in Kleenex brand products; and
No measurable commitment to Forest Stewardship Council certified fiber.
Take action >>Tell Kimberly-Clark's CEO, Thomas Falk, and President of Consumer Products, Steve Kalmanson, that you want Kimberly-Clark to stop destroying ancient forests, and that you will avoid Kimberly-Clark products until they meet with Greenpeace to start making real changes.
