Max, Show Resolute that you want justice in the Boreal Forest. Take action This morning, activists and Greenpeace volunteers have transformed the iconic Mount Royal cross into a symbol of justice to contrast the destructive practices of the largest logging company in Canada, Resolute Forest Products, and the lack of protection of our public forests. Why are we sending this message to Resolute? Because in exploiting the Boreal Forests Resolute has infringed on the rights of First Nations without consulting them, they have threatened forest biodiversity and are now intimidating those who speak out against destructive forest practices into silence with million dollar lawsuits. Does this sound fair to you? We are speaking out against these attacks on the integrity of our forests and threats against our freedom of speech. But in order to do this, we need you help. Please join us as we continue to defend the forest: sign the petition #StandForForests. The forest cannot defend itself against Resolute’s destructive practices. Together, we must encourage Resolute to collaborate with Greenpeace in order to develop solutions that establish protected areas and sustainable practices. Collaborating with industry is possible, we’ve done this in the Great Bear Rainforest and we can do it again in the Boreal Forest. Let’s #StandForForests together.
