Forests for Climate

Trees play a pivotal role in the battle against carbon dioxide

Carbon dioxide is the primary greenhouse gas responsible for driving climate change.

As trees mature, they actively absorb carbon dioxide from the atmosphere, converting it into sugars and wood while emitting pure oxygen back into the air. This dual action is profoundly beneficial, transforming forests with countless trees into effective carbon reservoirs and carbon-absorbing agents.

By responsibly harvesting trees before their natural decay releases carbon back into the atmosphere, we securely lock carbon within the wood and timber products. Subsequent replanting initiates a continuous cycle of carbon storage.

Wood and its derived products act as carbon stores. Opting for wood and wood-based materials over non-renewable, energy-intensive products and fossil fuels serves as a meaningful step towards mitigating the impacts of climate change.
