Forests affect Man and his World profoundly.
Paper, for which the forests produce raw material, is the principal tool Man
uses to record his thoughts and his actions. This is the theme of the Canadian
Pulp and Paper Pavilion, a stylized forest, in which the tallest trees are as
high as an eight story building. The first of four main exhibit areas shows
forest legends of the world, combining sound effects and animation into a
whimsical treatment. Next is a visit to one of the pavilions’ two unusual
theaters. Its walls suggest an unwinding roll of paper, and visitors watch a
show on paper’s history. The third area tells of the benefits Canadian pulp and
paper bring to the Canadian economy and the world. Next a visit to Lab 67, a
science whiz show presenting a lively demonstration relating to the chemical
aspect of paper production and the unlimited future application of paper
products.
