Enrollment in a sustainable forestry program helps ensure that landowners receive the highest value for the carbon credits developed from their land. Landowners enrolled in NativState’s forest carbon credit programs participate in certification programs like Forest Stewardship Council (FSC), Sustainable Forestry Initiative (SFI), and American Tree Farm System (ATFS). These programs document sustainable practices and provide global recognition in the Voluntary Carbon Market. Enrollment in these programs can increase carbon credit prices and ensure long-term land management. In this episode of Forest Matters, NativState VP of Forestry Tim White shares how he arrived at NativState and discusses sustainable forest management: • What it means for landowners• Its impact on forest carbon development• The impact of certification programs on harvesting• The economic benefits and requirements of certification• The challenges and future prospects of sustainable forest certification0:00 – Introduction & Landowner Questions2:00 – Meet Tim White & Sustainable Forestry4:00 – Certification Programs & Benefits7:00 – Financial Impact & Market Recognition10:00 – Landowner Requirements & Support13:00 – The Future of Forestry & Closing ThoughtsLearn more about NativState’s Forest Carbon Program: www.nativstate.comContact us: [email protected]Follow @NativState on LinkedIn, Instagram, Facebook
