What Are Forest Management Practices

Neal Carson, Timber and Forestry Manager, Packaging Corporation of America in Tennessee

"Sustainable forestry aims to maintain the long-term health and productivity of forests without depleting their resources."

Carolyn Mulligan, District Manager, American Forest Management in Virginia

"Sustainable forest management means we manage our forests in a way to ensure those forests can provide the planet with life's essential things. Things like clean air and water, beautiful landscapes and diversity of species. Also the forest products that enhance our lives and provide us comfort."

Cierra L.S. Ward, Forestry Manager, Resource Management Services in North Carolina

"Sustainable forestry ensures that the cycle keeps happening again and again while protecting water quality, wildlife habitat, and the beauty of the forest."
