National Alliance of Forest Owners (NAFO)

With modern forestry, economic and environmental outcomes don’t compete. They support each other. NAFO members proudly provide the renewable products our communities need – while ensuring the long-term sustainability of our forest resources. #ModernForestry #MarketsMakeItPossible

Planting trees is an important part of who we are and what we do. The continuous cycle of harvest and regrowth creates a mosaic of forest age and size classes across the landscape, which is beneficial for wildlife, water quality, carbon sequestration, and carbon storage. #TreePlanting #ModernForestry

Strong markets drive investment in America’s forests. ? #ModernForestry #MarketsMakeItPossible

America’s working forests not only produce the renewable products people use every day and provide millions of Americans with jobs, they also give us clean air, clean water, and wildlife habitat. That’s what makes #ModernForestry so unique – economic and environmental outcomes don’t compete. They support each other. ? #MarketsMakeItPossible

This week, the world’s first wooden satellite was launched into space. This unique satellite is designed to burn up upon re-entry, minimizing the release of problematic metal “space junk” – an issue linked to environmental impacts and potential interference with telecommunications. https://lnkd.in/eCMKC33g

From the pages of our favorite book to the homes we live in, forest products touch nearly every aspect of our lives. But they do more than meet our everyday needs. Because we use modern, sustainable forest management practices, NAFO forests provide wide-ranging environmental benefits: clean air, clean water, abundant wildlife habitat, and greater resilience to climate change. ? That’s why we are celebrating #ForestProductsWeek ??
