HP, WWF partner to launch HP Sustainable Forests Cooperative

Today, at the World Economic Forum’s Sustainable Development Impact Summit — also taking place in New York City this week — HP Inc. announced its next steps in creating a forest-positive future for printing with longstanding partner and conservation leader World Wildlife Fund (WWF).

With the help of WWF, HP is committing to the restoration, protection and conservation of 200,000 acres of forest, an area equal to the size of NYC.
