Post Forest-friendly paper for UK HBP

Greenpeace were previously campaigning for publishers of the Potter novels to use forest-friendly paper to print the next book in the series, 'Half-Blood Prince'. The British publishers, Bloomsbury have agreed to oblige to the request.

Quote:
Bloomsbury's publicity manager stated in an email to Greenpeace after Hedwig's visit that: "Bloomsbury, at the beginning of this month, ordered exclusively Forest Stewardship Council accredited paper for the printing of 'Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince'".
The US publisher, Scholastic, has yet to follow up on the request.

*punches up the air with her fist, making a whoop* Yes! That is good they are considering to use papers that helps conserve our forests, temperate or tropical.
