Is Virgin Paper Good for the Environment?
When it comes to paper, what qualifies as a
sustainable option can mean different things to
 different people. Some consumers prefer a product 
that contains high levels of post-consumer recycled 
material. Reusing the wood fiber helps extend the life 
of this valuable resource, while saving landfill space.
 For others, the social, environmental and economic 
requirements of third-party forest certification like the 
Forest Stewardship Council® (FSC®) assure responsible forest management practices were followed. To these consumers, independent certificate on is the best way to ensure the world’s forests remain for generations to come.
