WWF-CYP : WWF launched Check Your Paper, a global database of eco-rated papers at PaperWorld in Frankfurt on January 31. Check Your Paper helps paper buyers find products with the lowest environmental impact including forest, water and climate performance. The fibre in all papers featured on the audited list must come from known, legal sources. As of today, Check Your Paper includes about 100 paper products with “good” or “excellent” environmental score. Next step is to invite more manufactures to join and also to promote the tool among the paper buyers.
