Boycott Stone Container Corporation!!.

Stone Container is logging the very last of Colorado's old=gr-growth forests.
As the world's largest supplier of cardboard and newsprint, Stone is irreparably damaging the last 3% of Colorado old-growth in an attempt to keep up the status quo and keep its mill in southern Colorado open for business.
The next time you go shopping, check the bottom of the grocery bag you get. If it says "Good News", Topco, or Stone, you are supporting yet another raper of the forests.
Here in Colorado, we have very little merchanable timber. It's high and dry here--not the optimum for growing 300-400 year old trees, yet we still have some!!
