Resolute was pleased to join the Sustainable Forestry Initiative® (SFI®) delegation during COP 15 in Montreal where a historic framework was signed to safeguard biodiversity. Several members of our team attended workshops, panels and keynotes, including the Nature Conservancy of Canada’s event on conservation, to continue building relationships, promote the value and role of sustainable forest management, and understand different stakeholders’ concerns and perspectives.
Also known as the United Nations Biodiversity Conference, COP 15 is the fifteenth meeting of Parties to the Convention on Biological Diversity, bringing together countries to agree on a new set of goals to guide global action through 2030 to halt and reverse nature loss.
At Resolute, we recognize it is possible to harvest trees carefully while maintaining biodiversity. Our forest management and chain of custody certifications ensure the woodlands we manage provide protection for forest biodiversity and habitat – and that our fiber is obtained from responsible sources. In fact, standards require third-party audits aimed at safeguarding biodiversity, water quality, wildlife habitat, species at risk and forests with exceptional conservation value.To learn more about conservation and biodiversity at Resolute, we invite you to visit our webpage.
