Like the Wizard of Oz that terrified Dorothy and her gang in the famous movie, International Paper (IP) is the Wizard behind the curtain of forest destruction. As the largest paper company in the Southern US and the world, the company is in a unique position to become a true leader in sustainability and reshape the paper industry for the future. Instead, IP continues to support, uphold and even fund greenwashing for business as usual destructive forestry practices like logging endangered forests, ditching and draining wetlands, large-scale clearcutting and converting natural forests to tree plantations.

- 23 paper and packaging mills in the US chewing up our forests…
- 9 paper mills around the world exporting destruction…
- Billions of dollars in misguided taxpayer supported subsidies…
- Millions of dollars spent funding industry greenwashing…
- 1 BIG PROBLEM…
