DALLAS, April 4, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- In honor of Earth Month, the Scott Naturals brand is challenging Americans to take an easy green step by testing out its line of hybrid paper products for four weeks – and to enter the brand's 'Take the 4-Week Test Drive' sweepstakes for a chance at winning a new 2011 Ford Fusion hybrid sedan.

Starting April 4 and running through September 30, consumers can pledge to "test drive" Scott Naturals bath tissue, paper towels, flushable moist wipes and napkins by visiting www.ScottBrand.com. Scott Naturals is the world's first line of hybrid paper products*, combining the green benefits of recycled material with the quality people want.

"If we all took this four-week challenge, we could save two million trees**," said Jennifer Nobui, Scott Naturals Brand Manager. "Some consumers want to go green but are reluctant because they're concerned about quality or price. The goal of the challenge is to encourage consumers to take an easy green step by showing them they won't have to compromise quality or their budget when they choose Scott Naturals brand paper products."
