Forestry Uncut

De: Forest Nova Scotia
  • Resumen

  • Forestry has been a part of Nova Scotia since….before it was officially Nova Scotia. In Forestry Uncut, we explore where we’ve come from and where we’re heading in the forestry industry.

    We talk to the backbone of forestry –the people– and discover that innovation is everywhere if we can enact good policy to support it. We examine biofuel, mass timber, and more.

    The human element is at the forefront, from the connection to the forest that is an innate part of being human, to the emotional impact of wildfires and a look at family-run forestry businesses.

    We also discuss sustainability, misconceptions and the need for more communication and collaboration within the forestry industry itself.

    And we review Finnish forestry practices–what we can learn from value chains, sustainable forestry practices and opportunities for collaboration.

    As the old saying goes, we often don’t see the forest for the trees. Or in a modern sense the forest for the toilet paper, cardboard boxes and houses that surround us. Forestry is an industry that is woven into the fabric of our daily lives, but we don’t often see or acknowledge it. In Forestry Uncut, we aim to bring foresters and the industry to centre stage.
