For more than seven years, the Greenpeace forest campaign has sought to stop the ongoing destruction of Canada's boreal forest and woodland caribou habitat. On top of directly engaging destructive forest companies with boycotts and actions, Greenpeace published several reports detailing destructive on the ground forest practices, and their impacts, the link between climate change and boreal forest destruction and the connections between global forest products, logging companies, and customers.

The Canadian Boreal Forest Agreement (CBFA) announced on May 18, 2010 one of the biggest and most ambitious conservation agreements in the world. Forged by a coalition between nine leading environmental groups, including Greenpeace, and the Forest Products Association of Canada and its member companies, the long-term Agreement effectively ends the war in the woods across Canada's boreal forest.
