PACIA - Martin Jones, Chief Executive
"The Ollie Saves the Planet CD-ROM has earned the support
of the plastics and chemicals industries because of its ability
to explain ecological sustainability to a young and very important
audience. PACIA and its member companies have supported Sustain
Ability International's Ollie program because of its innovative
approach to education.
The plastics and chemicals industries are strong supporters of
sustainability initiatives, in their own businesses and in the wider
community. We see Ollie as an informative and entertaining tool
that will educate the next generation about sustainability and the
steps we can all take to reduce the impacts on our environment."
APIC - Belinda Robinson, Executive Director
"The paper industry has helped fund the development of the
Ollie Saves the Planet program to showcase its positive environmental
achievements, such as an increase in the use of recycled fibre and
a dramatic decrease in greenhouse gas emissions.
The paper industry is proud of its environmental record - it has
reduced its carbon dioxide emissions by 16 per cent since 1995 and
reduced energy consumed per tonne of production by 37 per cent since
1995 - and takes its environmental responsibilities very seriously.
Students will benefit from the Ollie Saves the Planet program by
its realistic depiction of the excellent work that is being done
by Australian companies, including paper manufacturers, to help
Australia move to a more environmentally sustainable future."
