Annual Review
We are living in challenging times for our planet and humankind. Climate change, the extinction of species and a growing disconnect between rural and urban communities are only some of the challenges the world is facing today. The good news is that our forests can be part of the solution.

PEFC and Forests: Your Climate Change Solution
PEFC certification and you
Forests are at the heart of society's action to combat climate change and its impacts. As carbon sinks, trees capture and store carbon, removing significant volumes of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere. Forest products meanwhile, provide us with a carbon-neutral alternative to our reliance on fossil fuels.
