Today, preserving resources and the environment are top concerns for businesses and consumers.  In the forestry industry, the effects reverberate from trees to the end-customer. 

- How can a timber production unit manage its business while sustaining the land? 

- How can a shopper looking to purchase a table confirm that the wood used was harvested ethically and from a sustainable / responsible forest?
