Responsible Forest Management

Responsible Forest Management involves practices that ensure forests are used sustainably, balancing current needs with the health of ecosystems for future generations. It includes conserving biodiversity, protecting water quality, and respecting the rights of local communities and Indigenous peoples. This approach minimizes environmental impact by implementing sustainable harvesting methods, replanting trees, and maintaining forest resilience against threats like pests and climate change. The goal is to produce the wood and forest products we rely on while preserving the forest’s ecological integrity, ensuring that forests continue to provide benefits for people, wildlife, and the planet over the long term.
