Home Depot is the largest retailer selling old growth rainforest wood in the world -- carrying a variety of products including wood from the old growth rainforest of British Columbia and old growth tropical wood such as mahogany and lauan.

You can help save these forests. Send a letter to Home Depot. Visit your local Home Depot store and tell the manager that you will be proud to patronize Home Depot only after old growth wood is taken off the shelves -- and you will tell your friends likewise!
