"Whatever you do, don’t wipe your butt with the boreal.” says Austin homeboy Brian Rodgers in the Boston Globe

Austin homeboy, world traveler, local commercial real estate investor, and activist extraordinaire for planet earth and all its critters, Brian Rodgers, recently hit a home run in the Boston Globe. The article gives a nice boost to his campaign against Charmin toilet paper for using wood pulp from one of the two most important forests on earth -- the boreal forest in Canada.
The boreal is the breeding ground for the 3 to 5 billion birds that migrate down into the U.S. every year.
Rodgers hit the road in March with his digital movie sign truck, just after the opening of his and Steve Mims' mini-documentary "Charmin Wipes Out a Forest”. Since then, it's been seen by over 1.5 million people.
Charmin is one of the leading products of the giant Fortune 500 company, Procter & Gamble.
Nearly 100 Procter & Gamble heirs have tried to get the company to get out of the boreal. A class action suit was also recently filed to represent the affected parties.
The millions of people across Canada, the U.S., and the world who give a crap about wildlife are also fighting this and praying for common sense.
We wish those working on this the best to protect one of the boreal forests.
Oh, and don't forget to stop using the boreal to wipe your butt.
