Wolf-Free Forests & CHOGM

Two of Norway's largest forest owner associations, have initiated a campaign to make the wolf disappear from Norway. Viken and Norskog sell their products mainly to Norske Skog ASA, in which both Viken and Norskog are shareholders. The company is one of the world's largest manufacturers of paper for print (magazines, newspaper et.) and the majority of its exports go to UK and Germany. The whole chain, from forest to consumers, is eco-labelled under PEFC as coming from sustainable operated forest... Maybe it should be labelled: coming from wolf-free forests? On the 6th of October, the Commonwealth Heads of Government — CHOGM — will be meeting in Brisbane at the Convention Centre. Fifty-four heads of state from Commonwealth countries, including HRH Queen Elizabeth II, Tony Blair and John Howard, will be meeting in private to discuss world economic policy. Stop CHOGM has been set up by the Stop Chogm Alliance to help build the biggest possible blockade of the CHOGM meeting
