The Biden administration has made major strides in tackling the climate crisis over the last four years – but this progress is now under attack by big polluters and their climate-denying allies in Congress. Your members of Congress need to know you’re counting on them to defend lifesaving standards to reduce climate-busting pollution from power plants and vehicles, block efforts to roll back clean energy solutions passed under the Inflation Reduction Act, and more.

Urge your lawmakers to stand strong against anti-environment assaults.

The results are in – and for the sixth year in a row, Procter & Gamble (P&G) failed the toilet paper sustainability test, scoring Fs across the board on Charmin and its other paper products according to NRDC’s 2024 The Issue with Tissue report.

In contrast, Georgia-Pacific, which began selling 100% recycled content toilet paper, and Kimberly-Clark, which announced new sustainability standards last June, earned passing grades for the first time. American bathrooms are stocked with toilet paper and tissues sourced from the Canadian boreal forest, one of the world’s largest and most ecologically important intact forests.

As one of the major purchasers of pulp from the boreal forest of Canada, P&G must change its ways if we are to have any hope of preserving this irreplaceable forest and combating this climate crisis.

Tell Procter & Gamble to stop flushing our forests.
