Greenpeace still waiting for toy companies stop playing with extinction

Greepeace organization ~got wondering who is using all the rainforest that is being destroyed in Indonesia and discovered that lots of it ends up as packaging of all kinds of well knowing brands (Disney, Mattel, Hasbro and Lego).

Their first clue was what some companies print on their boxes so they sent the toy packaging to the USA, where a global expert on paper analysed what they were made of and the scientist discovered something bad: there was MTH on those packaging.
