#WholeForest has a 20-year history working with landowners to enable sustainable forestry and forest restoration.
Strengthening landowner and community rights and ensuring that they gain economically from their forests is essential to forest conservation and restoration.🌳

Trees and forests are immensely valuable to cities and their residents.
Along with @Cities4Forests, we call on governments, companies & financial institutions to ramp up efforts to support forest conservation, restoration & management. #cities4forestscta #ClimateWeekNYC

We plan to preserve 200,000 acres of rainforest through #sustainable lumber harvesting, to rebuild the Brooklyn Bridge Promenade. Additionally, you'll find two diverse microforests on each end of the bridge, because New Yorkers deserve more #greenspace. Find out more tonight.

So often we think of climate change as a "polar bear" issue, or a "future generations" issue when the truth is that it is HERE and it is NOW - but here's what @Esri attenders said when I asked them why they care. They get it!

A great example of the role of the #GreenBelt in increasing woodland, with all the advantages trees bring for wildlife habitats, biodiversity & #floodprotection. A creative partnership facilitated by @MayorofLondon.

.@sfiprogram’s Darren Sleep can’t name 1 thing he likes about his job. Rather, he has a whole list: meeting new people, seeing new places, advocating for sound science & sustainable forestry. Want to ♡ your job as much as Darren? Consider a #forestsector career! #ItTakesAForest

"The behavior of cyclists, car drivers, truck drivers, pedestrians, in terms of not abiding by certain laws is about the same, but the responsibility you have wielding a multi ton car or truck is very different from walking or from riding a bike," says Marco Conner, of @TransAlt.

Here's a glimpse at our project under construction Taunton : the timber structure was installed in only 3 weeks, along with the steel frame underneath it. Quite efficient for a delivery of 800 m3 and 15 trucks, don't you think?

Trees provide fruits, nuts, leaves and insects for food and medicine, both at home and as a source of income. Celebrate forests on #IntlForestDay on 21 March! bit.ly/2k2EtZO
