Stora Enso has launched today the Global Responsibility website                 
and Facebook page for discussing responsibility topics. One of the highlights of
the website is a dialogue session between Sini Harkki from Greenpeace and Stora 
Enso's CEO Jouko Karvinen. The Facebook page offers an open forum for straight  
talk about critical responsibility topics.                                      

“The idea of the Global Responsibility website and Facebook page is the direct  
contact with our stakeholders without intermediaries or censorship,” says Jouko 
Karvinen, Stora Enso's CEO. “In today's world we have to find new ways to       
listen, discuss and learn. That is the only way to make tomorrow better for all 
of us.”                                                                         

“People have a lot of questions and concerns about the right to use wood and    
paper, the destiny of forests and human rights at plantations,” Karvinen        
continues. “Those questions and concerns are the basis of the Global            
Responsibility website and Facebook page. Stora Enso wants to start a discussion
on what kind of responsibility people expect from companies. What should be the 
role of a company and what are the roles of NGOs, consumers and governments.”   

The Global Responsibility website features people from a CarrotMob              
representative, a forest owner, a plantation specialist and a Greenpeace        
representative to Stora Enso's CEO, discussing various challenging topics       
related to responsibility. The website also offers a wealth of information for  
digging deeper into the issue.
