Helping to solve some of the globe’s greatest environmental challenges.
The International Sustainable Forestry Coalition (ISFC) brings together a group of the world’s leading forestry companies to work collectively to help solve some of the globe’s greatest environmental challenges.
With a global population of almost 8 billion people and a Gross World Product nearing $100 trillion [1], forests and all natural ecosystems are under pressure.
Deforestation to provide land for agriculture, physical impacts from climate change, disputes over land use and land rights, loss of species and degradation of freshwater quality and flows, are all becoming widespread problems. The global sustainable forestry sector wants to be a larger part of the solution to these problems.
