Thank you to all the Legislators who voted for these bills to #EndTheTimberWars #orpol #orleg dailyastorian.com/news/state-law…

“This demonstrates it is possible to put differences aside and work together on viable solutions to tough problems. Today we leave the Timber Wars in the past.” #orleg #orpol #ORforests mailchi.mp/oregon/news-re…

Morning brainworm: I am 95 percent sure this pic was taken on the Whitewater Trail, pre-Whitewater Fire. So, ironically given the story, this spot has been burned TWICE since it was taken, I am pretty sure.

Saturday’s agreement gives timber operators a sense of security going forward. “I think we’re all really proud to be part of a new era of forestry in Oregon,” Miller said. #orleg #orpol #oregonforestry apnews.com/article/busine…

Grow. Harvest. Replant. This is how we make sure forests + forest products are climate solutions, not climate problems #forestproud #forestproductsweek #forests4climate #ClimateSolution #ClimateAction #Carbon

Happy last day of #ForestProductsWeek. Check this out: "I know it’s counter-intuitive, but forest product demand can actually lead to more forests."

It's National #ForestProductsWeek Day 4! Check out this awesome Forest Carbon Data Visualization experience to learn the difference between carbon sequestration and storage, why harvesting timber for #woodproducts is good, and so much more 👇 🌳 forestcarbondataviz.org

Wood is key to a more sustainable future. Simply substituting wood for conventional building materials could provide almost a tenth of the global carbon emission reductions needed to meet 2030 goals. #ForestProductsWeek

We're halfway through National Forest Products Week! What better way to celebrate than to highlight how innovative wood products like CLT provide communities an environmentally-friendly building material made from a renewable resource. #workingforests #forestproductsweek

It's National Forest Products Week. Thanks to the #workingforests and people within the forest products sector who supply us with renewable, sustainable wood products that house us, keep us safe and make our lives better. #ForestProductsWeek

Have you heard of mass timber? It’s fire, earthquake and blast resistant! @forestservice is proud to support the new @Idaho_Central Credit Union Arena with a Wood Innovations Grant and resilient mass timber. #ForestProductsWeek ow.ly/qyer50GsbeF

It’s day 1 of #ForestProductsWeek! We manage our own forest lands and trees from “forest to finish.” Meaning we’re involved from propagation & planting to harvesting & manufacturing. We use the full tree & the biomass from our mills to power some of our facilities!

It could still take years to recover from the 2020 wildfires in Oregon, but one year later there are signs of hope and optimism across our communities. bit.ly/3iBALmV
