Even in a soft economy people care about green PDF Print E-mail

Our strategy is working friends!

A report released by Office Depot yesterday announced that even with the economic slowdown statistics continue to support the claim that "green" is important for today's business professionals and consumers. Apparently sales from the company's Green Book continue to rise.

Office Depot began selling and marketing green products because Dogwood Alliance activists, volunteers, donors and staff challenged the company to stand accountable for the impacts of their business practices on Southern forests. We also helped build consumer demand for environementally responsible paper products. We knew these changes were vital to the protection of our forests but we also believed that making public commitments and acting on those commitments would prove to be a wise business decision as well.

We don't expect Office Depot to thank us. But you can thank us, if you like by donating now. Then when we announce our next big victory or accomplishment you can say "Hey, I did that!"

Very best,

Michelle Smith

Development Director
