WWF grades paper product makers

Kimberly-Clark, P&G, Georgia-Pacific get failing grades
Major tissue and toilet paper manufacturers received failing environmental grades from the conservation group WWF on Wednesday for not doing enough to prove their timber comes from sustainable sources. While the paper giants are increasingly aware of the need to address unsustainable forest exploitation, illegal logging and land rights conflicts, the WWF said they had not demonstrated how they are avoiding such abuse.
