At the UN Climate Summit in Glasgow – the world saw 100 countries sign the “Declaration on Forests and Land Use” to halt and reverse forest loss and land degradation by 2030 while delivering sustainable development and promoting inclusive rural transformation. [This agreement] reinforced the importance of our world’s forests and we must now work together to make this commitment a reality… Three years ago, we officially launched our new National Forest Management Standard and the National Controlled Wood Risk Assessment. This was a historic moment for us and, in 2022, we will continue to focus our efforts on their successful implementations. …The solid wood sector, particularly in Western Canada, will be a focus going forward. Clearly, FSC brings a unique value proposition in responsible sourcing in key market segments such as Mass Timber. Our goal is to continue to build partnership across this value chain and to expand our impact.
