  • Forest products

    I enjoy the thoughtful podcast on the Sterling company and the mention of regenerative forestry. There is a professional certificate in sustainable forestry , and industry standard that makes sure forests will be there for generations to come. The professionals and the forest companies that qualify for this are doing reliable work for the economy and for the environment. Look for “sustainable forestry “ products.
