Nobody wants to buy products or support practices that destroy forests, but it can be hard to avoid.
That's where Co-op America's WoodWise Consumer Guide comes in, with practical tips and resources you can use every day to make a difference. If you care about forests, if you already recycle and want to do more, this guide is for you. Readers like you greeted the first publication of the WoodWise Consumer in 1998 with enthusiasm. Thousands wrote to us from all over the country to tell us about the forest-saving steps they'd taken after reading the guide. Long after we exhausted our supply of 200,000 copies, readers were still requesting the guide for themselves and for friends and family.
