British Columbia's Clayoquot Sound is being clearcut and made into
phonebooks!!
Clayoquot Sound, on Vancouver Island, is one of the largest
remaining expanses of old-growth temperate rainforest left in the world.
It is being clearcut by timber giant MacMillan-Bloedel and made into paper
pulp.
Two of MacMillan-Bloedel's biggest customers are Pacific Bell (in
northern California) and GTE (in southern CA), who use the old-growth
forest pulp to make phone books. This must stop!!
Please call Pacific Bell at 1-800-894-BELL and demand that they
stop buying paper pulp from MacMillan-Bloedel. Explain the problem and
ask them to make their phone books out of recycled paper instead. CalPIRG
is focussing its phone blitz on Mondays.
You can also get through to Pacific Bell by writing them a note
and stapling it to your phone bill every month.
Please help. Thanks.
