We Are In The Business Of Saving The Planet
We work collaboratively with brands, producers, local NGOs, Indigenous leaders, and decision-makers. Our approach brings the power of the global market to secure large-scale, and just conservation for the world’s climate-critical and biodiversity-rich forests.
Our Impact Initiatives
CanopyStyle
CanopyStyle brings together fashion’s most progressive players and industry giants to ensure we keep the world's most vital forests out of fabrics like rayon and viscose so that we can be fashionable, and keep the planet looking — and feeling — good too.
Pack4Good
The Pack4Good initiative invites industry leaders to think outside the box and implement real solutions to reduce waste, address risk, and ensure the world’s Ancient and Endangered Forests aren’t cut down to package your next delivery.
Next Gen
Next Gen Solutions use by-products of other processes instead of forests to make paper, paper packaging, and textiles. With the help of our brand, producer, and innovation partners, we are looking to galvanize over 60,000,000 tonnes of Next Gen alternatives by 2033 to reduce pressure on forests and make way for locally driven conservation initiatives.
I’m excited that John Lewis is building on our existing work with Canopy, by now also supporting the Pack4Good initiative.
We’re committed to protecting and restoring nature, and we constantly strive to reduce and improve our packaging. Signing up to the Pack4Good initiative is a truly positive step forward on our journey to ensuring all our paper-based packaging is from a more sustainable source.

The Cree Nation's vision for Eeyou Istchee
The Cree Nation's vision for Eeyou Istchee emphasizes sustainable development, cultural preservation, and environmental stewardship. This vision is laid out in the Eeyou Istchee Baie-James Regional Plan, which focuses on the integration of traditional knowledge with modern governance to ensure that development aligns with Cree values and priorities. According to the Cree Nation Government, approximately 80% of Eeyou Istchee is under the jurisdiction of the Cree, reinforcing their commitment to managing resources sustainably and protecting their ancestral lands (Cree Nation Government, 2018).
In pursuit of this vision, the Cree Nation aims to enhance socio-economic conditions by promoting local businesses and fostering education and employment opportunities. The Cree have also launched initiatives to address climate change and biodiversity loss, focusing on land use planning that respects traditional practices while facilitating responsible resource extraction. This holistic approach not only aims to improve community well-being but also seeks to preserve the unique ecological and cultural landscape of Eeyou Istchee for future generations.
