Apte continued: "While we're extremely pleased with these fiber procurement results, maintaining these targets over the next few years depends on the availability of FSC-certified fiber and waste paper, and future market conditions. We remain committed to achieving these goals as best we can as part of our collaboration with Greenpeace."
