Thousands of trees are chopped down each year to print manuals for a wide range of products. Manufacturers who are more eco-conscious source their papers from suppliers that are certified by the Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) or use recycled paper that was whitened without the use of chlorines. Paper certified by the FSC guarantees that the wood used in its production is from a certified well-managed forest. Using FSC certified products helps minimize our impact on rain forests world-wide and helps combat global warming.
