Impact means changing decision-making behavior fundamentally. Companies must adopt new measures to address climate change. We advocate for fair compensation for forest owners for their contributions to climate stability and for responsible forest management to benefit the climate. Realizing that emissions have a cost and understanding the value of promoting ecosystems lead to sustainable change.
