We all love forests. Today, forest protection advocates at Dogwood Alliance shined a spotlight on health and beauty products that are traditionally associated with Valentine’s Day and asked industry giants Procter & Gamble, Unilever, and Revlon to love forests too and reduce their excessive paper packaging.

Proctor & Gamble, Unilever and Revlon are three of the biggest
health and beauty companies using excessive packaging originating from
Southern forests—forests with more types of plants and animals to love
than almost anywhere in the world. Excessive packaging of beauty
products is just plain ugly, and destructive too.
Dogwood Alliance called on Proctor & Gamble, Unilever and Revlon to
reduce the amount of paper in packaging, increase post-consumer
recycled fiber used in packaging, and ensure that their paper products
are not coming from endangered forests.
The message is simple – forests shouldn’t be chopped down, chipped up,
made into packaging and tossed in the landfill. There are simple
solutions that can transform the packaging industry.
