Our forests are carefully managed to deliver wide-ranging environmental benefits while providing a sustainable supply of wood and fiber for everyday products. These lands provide clean water, clean air, remove carbon from the atmosphere, and provide abundant wildlife habitat. The key to keeping forests healthy and thriving is maintaining healthy markets for forest products. Strong markets drive investment in America’s forests. #ModernForestry ?

From the pages of our favorite book to the walls of our homes, forest products touch nearly every aspect of our lives. But they can do more than meet our everyday needs. Because we use modern, sustainable forest management practices, our forests provide additional environmental benefits: clean air, clean water, abundant wildlife habitat, and greater resilience to climate change. At TIR our management practices ensure forests provide what’s needed today while remaining a valuable natural resource for future generations. #ForestProductsWeek?

Building with wood helps keep forests on the landscape and drives investment in forest health and sustainability. Our forests are carefully managed to ensure a reliable and renewable supply of wood. As we meet society’s demand for wood, we also prioritize long-term sustainable harvest levels, prompt reforestation after harvesting, forest health and soil health, and the conservation of species habitat. Sustainable forest management is widely practiced by the U.S. forest sector. As a result, our country has enjoyed stable forest cover for much of the last century, ensuring a renewable and abundant natural resource for future generations. #AmericanForestProducts #ModernForestry #sustainableforestry

TIR’s investment strategy extends beyond traditional forestry management to leverage other sustainable investment opportunities. Establishing solar energy infrastructure and environmental mitigation banks on our clients’ lands is a key focus. In our latest Sustainability Report, we show how these initiatives not only diversify revenue streams for investors through fee generation and the sale of mitigation credits, but they also yield significant benefits for the communities hosting these projects. #solar #SustainableForestry
