Switzerland can help protect primeval forests
Swiss communes (local authorities) are helping to stop the clearance of the last surviving primeval forests. In their public buildings and for other structures they are using sustainably-produced timber and are employing increasing volumes of recycled paper in their administrations. This idea is continuously gaining support thanks to the campaign "ancient forest friendly communities".
