The Rainforest Action Network (RAN) issued a media release
on 11 October, 2012, claiming that The Walt Disney Company had "cut ties"
to APRIL following changes to its Paper Sourcing and Use Policy. Disney's own
announcement on its paper sourcing policy did not mention APRIL and to our
knowledge, APRIL does not directly sell paper to Disney and has never done so.
Both
the RAN announcement and the Disney announcement mentioned that Disney's new
sourcing policy was designed to have particular impact on Indonesia.
