This International Day of Forests, FSC ANZ celebrates the great work of Australia’s first ever FSC forest management certificate holder, HVP Plantations, in implementing our forest management standards down under.
As climate change concerns rise, demand for sustainable and ethically sourced goods grows. With this in mind, many corporations, businesses and brands are ramping up their eco-friendly advertising schemes to align with a ‘greener’ image.
Responsible Forest Management Australia Limited (RFMAL), trading as FSC Australia, (referred to as FSC ANZ) is now seeking nominations for four directorship positions to join the FSC Australia Board of Directors.
As we celebrate International Day of Forests, it's crucial to remind ourselves of the immense benefits that these green spaces provide to our well-being. From providing clean air, water, and soil, to food sources and regulating the water cycle and temperatures and filtering pollutants, forests are critical for our survival. Furthermore, forests are habitats for a diverse array of plant and animal species, some of which possess medicinal properties that can be utilised to address various health conditions.
For FSC, gender equality is a fundamental aspect of responsible forestry. Our responsible forestry standards mandate that all employment practices, training opportunities, contract allocations, and management activities must offer equal opportunities for both men and women. Additionally, we ensure that all employees, regardless of gender, receive fair and equitable compensation for the same work.
