PAPER SUMMITS

In November 2002, 75 members of 56 environmental groups from the U.S., Canada, Indonesia and the U.K. gathered together to join in an unprecedented commitment to cooperation in furthering their work towards an environmentally and socially sustainable paper production system.

The Environmental Paper Summit launched networking and collaboration among groups promoting the use of environmental papers, as well as laid the framework for outreach to paper purchasers, producers and suppliers; community and social justice groups; labor unions; and all the other entities necessary to create a paper production system good for the earth.

The Summit was a historic event and resulted in the ratification of the Common Vision for Transforming the Paper Industry. In addition, the Summit helped to support enduring organizational collaborations.

FUTURE SUMMITS
Future summits will focus on building bridges between market forces and manufacturers in addition to continuing to facilitate organizational networking and collaboration.
