CHICAGO (September 29, 2016) – Forests Ontario has joined Two Sides North America, the non-profit organization that promotes and encourages the responsible production, use, and sustainability of print and paper.

Forests Ontario is doing a fantastic job at this and they are a great fit for Two Sides. We look forward to working with them in the future,” said Two Sides North America President, Phil Riebel.

“It is important to increase the public's awareness of sustainably managed forests and their role in ensuring a healthy society and robust economy. We look forward to collaborating with Two Sides in our collective efforts to engage our youth and provide the public with fact-based information about our forests,” said Rob Keen, CEO, Forests Ontario.
