Action against Kimberly Clark Plant in Canada (Video)

Greenpeace activists blockade the Kimberly-Clark plant in Huntsville, Ontario. Activists stopped all shipments of goods entering and leaving the factory via train and truck. Other volunteers occupied the rooftop of the factory and a larger banner reading 'Kimberly Clark and Kleenex: Stop Destroying the Boreal Forest.'
The fibre used to manufacture tissue products in this factory, including Kleenex facial tissue, comes from the ancient Boreal forests in Ontario, Canada. Greenpeace is demanding that the company stop making Kleenex and other disposable tissue products from clearcut ancient forests, including Canada’s Boreal. The action took place on the same day as Kimberly-Clark’s annual shareholder meeting in Irving, Texas.
