Today was a
day I have at times feared might never come, but I’ve just emerged from a
packed press conference in Jakarta for the launch of Asia Pulp & Paper’s
new ‘Forest Conservation Policy’ aimed to end its involvement in deforestation.

The past 10 days have seen a growing chorus of protests aimed at
KFC’s destructive packaging while the company has remained totally
silent over what action it will take to cut the infamous Asia Pulp and
Paper (APP) out of its supply chain.
In India, Greenpeace
activists dressed as orangutans held banners emblazoned with “KFC: No
Good For Rainforests” outside a KFC store in downtown Delhi. A follow-up
in Kolkata swiftly followed, with more orangutans lining up to demand
that KFC stop turning rainforests into trash to make cheap packaging.

“Zero tolerance for illegal wood.”
These are the five words that say a lot but
apparently mean little to Asia Pulp and Paper (APP), a company that has made a mantra out of repeating
something which is simply not true. And
today, we’ve released proof that what APP says is wrong.
