IKEA and WWF HQ began working together in 2002 to promote responsible forestry,
support better cotton production and address climate change issues.
In 2007, IKEA Singapore and WWF Singapore forged a local partnership promoting
responsible consumer behavior through IKEAs Say No To Plastic Bags campaign.
Proceeds from the sale of the plastic bags go to WWF for community livehood projects in
support of forest conservation in Indonesia.
