Staples can choose more responsible practices.
As the number of Staples stores increases, so does the number of forests destroyed. Staples is the largest and fastest growing office super-store in the world, with over 1,100 stores and locations in 48 states plus Washington, DC and the UK, Canada, Germany, Portugal and the Netherlands. Staples averaged a store opening every 48 hours in 1999. This kind of rapacious growth cannot be sustained and our forests are paying an incredible price for Staples' profits. Environmentalists have been contacting Staples about their practices for over two years.
