Design 21 Competition: A competition to create elements of a consumer call-to-action campaign to buy FSC-certified products as a means of protecting forests around the world.
In many
forests around the world, logging still contributes to habitat
destruction, water pollution, displacement of indigenous peoples,
and violence against people who work in the forest and the
wildlife that dwells there. Many consumers of wood and paper,
and many forest products companies believe that the link between
logging and these negative impacts can be broken, and that
forests can be managed and protected at the same time. Forest
Stewardship Council certification is one way to improve the
practice of forestry.
