Ancient and Endangered Forest Purchasing Policy:
Mitchell collaborated with not-for-profit Canopy to formulate guidelines for our paper procurement. This helps us increase our responsible paper FSC® and post-consumer waste paper purchases, including alternative fibres. It also provides guidelines for reducing carbon footprints and encourages our suppliers to protect and preserve ancient and endangered forests globally.
Responsible Forestry: Mitchell is working with not-for-profit Canopy to encourage governments and the forestry sector to support and advance protection of the world’s ancient and endangered forests. We are proud to contribute to the creation of conservation legacies in these landscapes of hope.
