Through innovation and sustainable forestry practices, Canada’s forest sector🌲is growing a greener, more sustainable future, all while working to keep our forests as forests forever.

#DYK Canada leads the world in third-party forest certification, managing more than twice the certified area than any other country! We’re doing our part to protect our most valuable climate change asset. 🌲
What do wildfires, housing and climate change all have in common? Aside from being among our most pressing challenges, they’re all things a sustainable forest sector can help solve. Welcome to Season 2 of Canadian Forestry Can Save The World Podcast: open.spotify.com/episode/4wKZI9…
#DYK Mass timber buildings not only store carbon, but reduce carbon pollution during construction by up to 45%? By thinking bigger and building taller with wood, we can move the carbon capture potential of our forests to our cities.
“When we’re building with wood, what we’re doing is we’re leveraging our forests’ natural ability to absorb carbon dioxide and to store it in the form of these beautiful buildings.”

When we build our schools, skyscrapers, and community centres with wood, we move the carbon capture potential of our forests into our cities, creating the kind of carbon storage we need to reach our net-zero goals.

In light of the recent wildfires in Jasper, where more than 25,000 residents and visitors were evacuated, David Herle of @TheHerleBurly Podcast discusses how people and fire should co-exist with special guests Edward Struzik @Kujjua and Kate Lindsay.
In 2023, Canada ranked 4th in CO2 emissions because of wildfires. Unmanaged forests fuel flames. We keep them in check. Discover How We Help Prevent Wildfires. forestryforthefuture.ca/advocacy/wildf…

Canada’s forests employ 200,000 people and support 300+ communities. They’re essential to our future. We protect them. Canada’s Future Depends on Strong Forestry. forestryforthefuture.ca
The forest sector is finding ways to use every part of the tree to help decarbonize our economy, and one of the critical ways they’re doing it is by turning byproducts into biomass. Learn more:
Did you know? Mass timber construction can reduce carbon pollution during construction by up to 45%. And mass timber buildings also require less energy to heat and cool long-term.
