Current Issues

We provide society with products that meet high environmental standards. As a leader in the forest products industry for more than 100 years, we welcome the responsibility to incorporate sound environmental objectives in our practices.

Within democratic society, there will be debate about what constitutes sound environmental objectives. We are committed to continuous improvement of our practices and are open to change based on the best available science.

We engage in meaningful and respectful dialogue with others to ensure the continued well-being of the forest ecosystem. We must listen to others—even those who are critical of what we do. At the same time, we encourage our critics to engage in meaningful and civil dialogue. The well-being of our forests is too important to be reduced to sound bites, single-cause approaches, or dialogue between only two parties.

By working together, we believe we can find common ground to the complex issues of our day.
