Markets
Initiative Campaign
The
Markets Initiative campaign is fostering sustainable resource
stewardship including sustainable logging by generating a
market for eco-certified wood products, and recycled and non-wood
alternatives.
 The
Markets Initiative works with Canadian businesses to adopt
environmentally sound wood and paper purchasing policies.
Spark
volunteered its time to coordinate a Markets Initiative Workshop
in Toronto in February, 2001. The workshop is a forum and
working session for businesses implementing environmentally
sound wood and paper purchasing policies.
An
enormous thank you to those 19 companies who joined us in
February, 2001 to benefit from the first-hand experience of
other Markets Initiative signatories and to learn about how
to implement wood and paper purchasing policies in their organisations.
