WHAT: FREE WEBINAR, BROUGHT TO YOU BY NEENAH PAPER
Making environmentally responsible choices can be daunting. With so many options available, how do you really know what to choose?

On Tuesday, Feb. 23, 2010, at 2 p.m. EDT (11 a.m. PST), the Forest Stewardship Council-US (FSC-US) will host a FREE Webinar, sponsored by Neenah Paper, to help navigate what responsible forestry is and why it's important. The FSC certification process and what it means as well as FSC's role in the paper marketplace and future plans will also be addressed. The FSC is an independent, international nonprofit organization created to further the practice of environmentally and socially responsible forestry worldwide. Today, companies of all sizes including Neenah Paper are increasingly specifying FSC-certified papers as part of an overall commitment to reduce their environmental footprint.

About FSC
FSC is an international, independent organization that assures environmentally appropriate, socially beneficial and economically viable forest management through independent third-party certification and labeling of wood, paper and other forest products. It was founded in response to public concern about deforestation and demand for a trustworthy wood-labeling system. FSC's on-product labeling allows businesses and consumers to choose products from well-managed forests - those that are managed to meet the social, economic and ecological needs of present and future generations. FSC is also the only forest certification organization endorsed by such major environmental organizations as the World Wildlife Fund, National Wildlife Federation and Greenpeace. There are currently more than 100 million acres of FSC-certified forestland in the United States and Canada and more than 281 million acres in more than 82 countries. More than 14,000 manufacturers and distributors are certified to buy and sell FSC products, representing more than $20 billion in FSC-labeled product annually.
