Forest Certification in Sustainable Development

Healing the Landscape

Beschreibung

From recycled products to organic food, the movement to be "environmentally friendly" is now expanding into the forestry field. Recognizing this impact, Home Depot has committed to giving preference to selling "certified wood," proven to come from forests that meet certain biological and social sustainablility standards. Retailers and vendors can offer certified wood through the international Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) and FSC accredited organizations like SmartWood, recently featured in People magazine.

Autor

Walter Smith is a mostly retired scientist living with his wife, Fran, in Wellington, Florida and New Canaan, Connecticut. The Year that Didn't Exist is his third publication, his second featuring the mostly fictional Walter Stafford, introduced in The Walter Integral. Fran and Walter both enjoy horses, small dogs, children, only sometimes, grandchildren, avoiding deadly and annoying viruses, and not travelling by plane, boat, train or any form of transportation requiring more than a horse, car or your feet. Fran and Walter met and married while they were at the Tute, aka Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, in Troy, NY in the early 1970s.
