POPULAR children's book Winnie-The-Pooh is being re-imagined to highlight the impact of deforestation across the globe.<\/p>\n
New illustrations of the book's characters will feature in Winnie-The-Pooh: The Deforested Edition, where Hundred Acre Wood is claimed by deforestation.<\/p>\n

The classic literature is being updated to raise awareness of the catastrophic rate at which trees are being cut down to make traditional toilet paper.<\/p>\n
It comes after a poll of 1,000 parents of six to 11-year-olds found that more than half of parents couldn\u2019t confidently say what deforestation is.<\/p>\n
Moreover, 38 per cent didn\u2019t realise toilet roll can be made from trees – despite the fact that over one million trees are cut down globally, each day, to provide the world with loo paper.<\/p>\n
More than half (53 per cent) of the parents said their children are raising concerns over environmental issues.<\/p>\n
