WHY IT MATTERS
It is critical that we work together to ensure the sustainability of our planet. People and organizations are seeking solutions that not just reduce negative impacts but ensure positive contributions to the long-term health of people and the planet. SFI-certified forests and products are powerful tools to achieve shared goals such as climate action, reduced waste, conservation of biodiversity, education of future generations, and sustainable economic development.
SFI provides practical, scalable solutions for markets and communities working to pursue this growing commitment to a sustainable planet. When companies, consumers, educators, community and sustainability leaders collaborate with SFI, they are making active, positive choices to achieve a sustainable future.
Climate change is one of our most pressing global challenges and forests are one of our most important tools for fighting it.
SFI-certified forests are sustainably managed to provide habitats for multiple species, including species at risk.
We need to dramatically reduce the volume of single use plastics flowing into our oceans and landfills on a daily basis.
SFI-certified wood is an environmentally positive choice for construction and renovations—it’s a sustainable, natural, and renewable resource.
