Two Sides Q3 Campaign Update 2020 Reports The Latest Campaign Successes

We are pleased to present the Two Sides Q3 Campaign Update 2020.

Never has there been such widespread attention of the environmental credentials of the products and materials we use. A seismic shift is happening in both public and business attitudes towards sustainability. More people than ever appreciate that paper can be an environmentally sound choice for reading materials, communications, and packaging solutions. But, there is still a significant underestimation of just how sustainable paper and paper-based packaging is.

It’s making our work at Two Sides more important than ever. Especially when we speak to consumers via our Love Paper campaign.

The awareness of the Love Paper campaign is growing. We are continually seeing more visitors to our website (lovepaper.org). This year to date, we have had 15,000 website visitors, 30,000 website page views and gained over 2,500 social media followers.

As a member, get involved and use the Love Paper logo in your own communications to help spread this vital message. The logo can also be used by brands, your customers and you on paper-based communications and packaging to explain their sustainable and attractive attributes. Join the likes of Oliver Bonas, Papier, Fat Face and Argos/Sainsburys! Make your application here.

We continue to work hard to ensure brands understand the environmental credentials of print, paper and paper packaging. Our Anti-Greenwash campaign combats against those making misleading claims such as “Go online and save trees”. In Q3, we successfully influenced 19 companies to change their marketing communications.

Double certification on the rise, joint PEFC/FSC data shows

PEFC and FSC have agreed to jointly collect and publish data on double certification, starting from 2016 onwards. More than 69 million hectares (or 16%) of all certified forests globally are double certified to both PEFC and FSC. This is an increase of 30 million hectares compared to data collected by PEFC in 2012. Double certification exists because foresters in different parts of the world have chosen to use both PEFC and FSC certification for their forest management units to prove their sustainable forest management practices. As their respective certified forest area appears in both the PEFC and the FSC statistics, this has led to inflated numbers of the total global certified area. PEFC and FSC therefore decided to work together to provide a more accurate and mutually agreed estimate for the total global certified area. Click Read More below for additional detail.

Crown Signs Renewable Energy Deal Significantly Expanding Coverage of Its Electricity Consumption in Europe

Crown Holdings, Inc. has entered a 15-year Virtual Power Purchase Agreement (VPPA) with Enel Green Power España (EGPE), Endesa's renewable energy subsidiary, securing renewable electricity from a new PV project built in Badajoz, Spain. This deal will cover all of Crown's current operational footprint in European countries that are part of the Alliance of Issuing Bodies (AIB), which manages the European Energy Certificate System, allowing the Company to advance in its Twentyby30™ sustainability program. This agreement is Crown's first VPPA in Europe and demonstrates the Company's commitment to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and to act locally. The project is expected to produce an annual output of 285,100 Megawatt hours (MWh), of which Crown is contracted for around 70%—saving the CO2 emissions equivalent of nearly 40,000 homes' electricity use for one year. Scheduled to start operation in October 2025, the renewable energy supply from the PV power plant follows Crown's earlier renewable energy project designed to address decarbonization and sustainability goals.
