Breaking News – Protest at Kleenex Factory

Kleenex, one of the most popular brands of tissue products in the world, contributes to the destruction of ancient forests. Its manufacturer, the Kimberly-Clark corporation, has been unwilling to improve its practices, continuing to rely on paper and pulp made from clearcut ancient forest including Canada’s Boreal forest.

Moments ago, Greenpeace activists drove a Kleenex shaped bus across the entrance of Kimberly-Clark’s paper mill. It is at the access point to one of the largest mills in the country. This busy mill receives thousands of tons of ancient trees throughout the year, so our action is sure to get the company’s immediate attention.

You can help by encouraging Kimberly-Clark to meet with us right now!
