Growing up, I was constantly outside surrounded by trees, collecting cool rocks, studying the textures of leaves with my magnifying glass and being completely fascinated by all the different kinds of trees. Back then, I didn’t realize just how much forests give us. Not just peace and a sense of safety but clean air, fresh water, climate regulation and so much more! That’s why it’s SO important to take care of our forests and sustainable forestry plays a big part in that. That’s where @Forestry For The Future comes in. Here are just a few of the things sustainably managed forests give us: 🌲 Greener, faster ways to build homes are especially important during a housing crisis 🌲 Support for over 300 rural, Indigenous & northern communities 🌲 200,000 good Canadian jobs 🌲 $37 billion in forest product exports each year 🌲 Fire prevention through Indigenous knowledge & controlled burns 🌲 Everyday products like diapers, cosmetics, electronics & medicine Also - did you know Canada has 318 billion trees? That’s about 8,000 per person (!!). We harvest just 16 of those per 8,000 and we replant more than we take. Forests are a powerful part of the climate solution. When we care for them the right way, they continue for us. #ForestryForTheFuture @forestryforthefuture #travel #canada #alberta #forests less
