PORTLAND, OREGON—  More than 1,500 companies worldwide have pulled back or amended unsupported anti-paper messaging; over half of North American companies challenged have followed suit. Two Sides North America is the North American arm of the global non-profit organization advocating for the sustainable attributes of print, paper, and paper-based packaging. This year, the group marked a major milestone: more than 1,500 companies worldwide have now pulled back or amended environmental claims that unfairly cast paper and paper-based packaging as bad for the planet. The effort is part of a public-awareness push the organization has run for over a decade.
