While we're talking boycotting those who pillage our native forests:

http://www.ethicalpaper.com.au/index.php

Join thousands of Australians asserting their commitment to sustainability and the environment by NOT purchasing Reflex Paper until its producer, Australian Paper, stops sourcing from native forests.

The production of woodchips for pulp and paper is the largest driver of forest destruction in Australia. Viable alternatives exist. Australia currently has a vast amount of plantation wood available so there is no excuse for Reflex to be produced from the destruction of our native forests.

Logging native forests damages crucial wildlife habitat, damages water catchments and releases huge amounts of carbon into the atmosphere - globally, 'logging and land-use changes' account for almost 20% of all greenhouse gas emissions.

Furthermore, most forestry jobs are in the plantation sector but state governments use our taxpayer dollars to sell native forests at artificially low prices, undermining the plantation sector and putting plantation jobs at risk.

I need a new dining suite. At least I know Harvey Normans furniture is made from good quality wood.

If I take the reply from Harvey on Sunrise as being completely honest, he says that 5% of this wood that's caused a problem is used in furniture, the other 95% is used elsewhere.

He goes on to say that "around 1%" of that 5% is used by Harvey Norman...

Considering the number of businesses that sell furniture, that is a very large proportion of the wood.

I won't go to Harvey Norman in any case because I think Gerry Harvey is a piece of s***.
