This year every man, woman, and child will use the equivalent of a 100-foot tree — for building materials, paper, packaging and other products made from wood and wood fiber. Through research, fertilization and thinning, our High Yield Forestry helps nature increase its output. And by planting millions of trees annually, we help make sure we have products — and a place for wildlife — in the future.
