Call on Office Depot, Office Max and Staples to reject paper from
Genetically Engineered trees!
Despite emails and calls from over ten thousand OCA members, the US
Department of Agriculture has approved a "field trial" of 200,000
genetically modified eucalyptus in Florida

The field trials are being conducted by ArborGen, a notorious
biotechnology entity owned by the "Big Three" paper multinationals:
International Paper, MeadWestvaco, and Rubicon.
Act now! Send an email to the nation's top retail office supply stores
and insist that they reject paper products from GE trees!
Take Action
