The Toronto alt-weekly is the first newspaper in Canada to adopt an "Ancient Forest Friendly" paper policy, which includes their commitment to use more 100% post-consumer recycled paper and paper from alternative sources such as flax and wheat straw. The shift will spare 28,000 trees a year, according to a press release, and NOW assumes a leadership role in persuading the newspaper industry to follow suit.
