Logging to develop forest products can be beneficial! In some cases, logging can help an ecosystem in need of disturbance & regeneration.
It's best to consult professional foresters who can provide science- and place-based plans for forest management.

Did you know?: The wood pellet sector consumes over 5 million tons of sawmill residuals, 1.3 million tons of wood product manufacturing residuals and 6 million tons of other woody residuals every year? This maximizes the value of every harvested log. #nationalforestproductsweek22

As we continue on our journey to a #decarbonized society, #renewableenergy, #sustainable products and materials, and low-carbon / #carbon positive solutions are going to be key. #forestproductsweek #bioenergyday2022
The last stop in the wood pellet supply chain are the proprietors of hearth stores. We stopped in to visit Chad @TheStoveDepot yesterday to talk about the heating season, pellet demand, the impact of the tax credit on appliance sales. #nationalforestproductsweek22
A man in his element. Pat Curran at @curranrenewables has spent a life in the woods, sustainably managing them and finding ways to add value. Spent a day with him this week to celebrate #nationalforestproductsweek22. Thanks Pat.

Not sure I could have picked a better place to celebrate #nationalforestproductsweek22. @curranpellets is a sterling example of sustainable use of our forest resource. Pat Curran is an impressive professional. Happy to have him in our association.

Hats off to our members putting people to work in this amazing value-added forest products industry we work in. PFI is on the road for the first half of the week, seeing forest products manufacturing in New York and Vermont. #nationalforestproductsweek

Top industry concerns expressed at Maine Forest Products Council meeting:
-Workforce
-Fiber cost and availability
-Loss of loggers
-Fuel prices
-Inflation
-Trucking
These...all might be the same thing (or so interconnected that they can't be distinguished)

If you heat with oil (looking at you, rural New England), save $$ and support the local economy by switching to wood pellets

We chatted with @TimPortz , Executive Director of @PelletFuel in our latest podcast! With the passing of the landmark Inflation Reduction Act: What's in it for modern wood heating?

The economic argument for heating a home with wood pellets has never been more stark. Great analysis by our friends over at FutureMetrics.

We'd welcome @JonVigliotti to learn of the whole story about the wood pellet industry. The sector put to good use over 12.8 million tons of residues that looked just like this last year. pellet.memberclicks.net/asse…
Don't take our word for out. The @EIAgov curates a very good report. The problem with looking at an industry through a drinking straw is you never see the whole picture. eia.gov/biofuels/biomass/#ta…
