Inglis
 Susan
Inglis, Executive Director of the Sustainable
Furniture Council, will talk about
the organization's work, with an emphasis on how this fairly new educational organization
is making a difference in reducing the amount of illegal logging that the home furnishings
industry is responsible for. SFC was founded by Gerry Cooklin, who manufactures South
Cone furniture in Peru & Argentina. He greened his own operation
and started several important sustainability projects when he realized what a large
part the home furnishings industry can play in halting deforestation in the Amazon
River Basin.
