On this day, 45 years ago, young South Africans rose up against an oppressive education system in what became known as the Soweto uprising. More than 170 were killed by police gunfire.

Today, 16 June 2021, on both #YouthDay and the #DayoftheAfricanChild, we remember. We remember and learn. We remember and look forward. We remember and listen: "Education is the great engine of personal development. It is through education that the daughter of a peasant can become a doctor, that the son of a mine worker can become the head of the mine, that a child of farm workers can become the president of a great nation. It is what we make out of what we have, not what we are given, that separates one person from another.” - Nelson Mandela

Paper is remarkable, agree? So is the industry and value chain that gets it from A to B!

Not only do South African forestry companies ensure that paper made in line with the highest environmental standards, they also care for the environment with which they share their land.

Ecosystem preservation, conservation and restoration is what many of our people do day in, and day out.

So next time you print 🖨, or choose paper for your packaging 🧃, or even blow your nose 🧻, you can be assured that the paper you're using is responsibly produced.

Let's mark #WorldEnvironmentDay with some facts about paper recycling!

🟢 Paper recycling enables papermakers to reuse paper fibre in new products especially in tissue and packaging products. 📦

🟢 Paper recycling keeps the carbon (absorbed by trees) locked up in the paper fibre for longer. 🌍

🟢 Paper recycling supports the waste economy, supporting businesses, jobs and livelihoods. 🙂

🟢 Paper recycling reduces the burden on our landfills. ♻️

Paper! Renewable, recyclable and remarkable. Today, on #worldenvironmentday🌍, we pay tribute to the responsibly managed plantations that gives us the wood we make the paper we use every day.

Paper is renewable because the trees from which it is made are replanted with new saplings!

Saving our planet, lifting people out of poverty, advancing economic growth... these are one and the same fight. We must connect the dots between climate change, water scarcity, energy shortages, global health, food security and women's empowerment. Solutions to one problem must be solutions for all.

Toilet roll cores are pretty useful - before and after! Why not try your hand at these? They are great for attaching to gifts or stringing together as a garland.

These are featured in a YouTube video we put together last year. [link in bio]

Biodiversity is very important to the forestry and

Biodiversity is very important to the forestry and forest products sector. It's why forestry companies have invested significantly in the identification and conversation of many creatures and critters.

The sector has identified over 30 mammal species, 502 bird species and countless reptile, amphibian and insect species that call forestry-owned land home.

Take a look at @forestry_explained for a peek into the world of forestry in South Africa.

We're part of the solution #ForNature.
