Building on Episode 9, we continue our focus on wood as a climate solution. But not all wood is created equal. In fact, most lumber extraction leads to a degraded environment. So in order to deliver on wood’s carbon storage promises, we need to push for sustainable forestry practices.
Brad Kahn is the Communications Director for the Forest Stewardship Council in the US. And Terry Campbell is Vice President of Sustainable Impact at Sustainable Northwest Wood in Portland, Oregon. They are both doing great work to promote sustainable forestry and get more good wood into building projects. We talk about FSC certification and examine the many values that it covers such as water and air quality and biodiversity. We also touch on wildfires, small farms, tribal lands, and corporate climate commitments.
