SFI 2020 Annual Report
SUSTAINABLE FORESTRY INITIATIVE 2YEARS SFI-00001 1995-20205 BETTER CHOICES FOR THE PLANET 2020 SFI PROGRESS REPORT 18-month calendar July 2020–December 2021 SUSTAINABLE FORESTRY INITIATIVE 2YEARS SFI-00001 1995-20205 IT IS CRITICAL THAT WE WORK TOGETHER TO ENSURE THE SUSTAINABILITY OF OUR PLANET. People and organizations are seeking solutions that don’t just reduce negative impacts but ensure positive contributions to the long-term health of people and the planet. SFI-certified forests and products are powerful tools to achieve shared goals such as climate action, reduced waste, conservation of biodiversity, education of future generations, and sustainable economic development. SFI PROVIDES PRACTICAL, SCALABLE SOLUTIONS FOR MARKETS AND COMMUNITIES WORKING TO PURSUE THIS GROWING COMMITMENT TO A SUSTAINABLE PLANET. When companies, consumers, educators, community, and sustainability leaders collaborate with SFI, they are making active, positive choices to achieve a sustainable future. Our mission is to advance sustainability through forest-focused collaborations. For 25 years, SFI has been a leader in sustainable forest management through our standards. In recent years, we have built on our successes and evolved into a solutions-oriented sustainability organization that addresses local, national, and global challenges. Our recently updated mission, to advance sustainability through forest-focused collaborations, reflects this focus. Climate change, biodiversity, strength in diversity, clean water, the future of our youth, the importance of a walk in the forest, and the sustainability and resilience of our communities—these are some of the important issues that the SFI community is working to address. Thank you for We also realized that we will need a new generation of leaders to help us tackle the future challenges being a part of facing our planet. -
Final Documentation Report Chisholm Fire (LWF-063)
Final Documentation Report Chisholm Fire (LWF-063) Forest Protection Division TABLE OF CONTENTS 1.0 OVERVIEW.................................................................................................................. 2 1.1 Context ................................................................................................................... 2 1.2 Chisholm Community............................................................................................. 2 1.3 Documentation Team.............................................................................................. 3 Section 1.0 1 1.0 OVERVIEW 1.1 CONTEXT Over the past decade, fire seasons in North America have generally increased in both length and severity. In both 2000 and 2001, the fire season in Alberta was officially declared on March 1, one month earlier than all previous years on record. Coinciding with this has been the aging of forests throughout North America beyond their natural historic ranges, and the increase in community and industrial developments in forested areas which are creating a greater number of wildland/rural/industry interface boundaries. The latter has required unique fire management strategies. As the severity of the 2001 fire season developed in late May, Land and Forest Service escalated man-up and aircraft expenditures significantly above normal levels in expection of increased fire load (Figures 1-3). Prior to fire activity in the Protection Zone of Alberta, municipalities in the agricultural areas were experiencing extreme fire behaviour -

From time immemorial, forests have been a way of life for First Nations, bringing together cultural, spiritual and social values. They have relied on forests for food, medicine, clothing and shelter. Forests continue to form an essential part of First Nations’ well-being, providing economic benefits and fulfilling cultural and spiritual needs for present and future generations. In 1996, the Government of Canada established the First Nations Forestry Program (FNFP) to help improve economic conditions in First Nation communities. Through this program, First Nations are able to build capacity and assume control of the management of forest resources on reserve lands, establish partnerships, and actively participate in off-reserve forestry and other economic development opportunities. First Nations are directly involved in the management of this innovative and highly successful program. -

The Canadian Forest Service Celebrated Its Centennial
In 1999, the Canadian Forest Service celebrated its centennial. The organization’s durability through a roller coaster of organizational focus and financial support is its legacy. For more than 100 years, its forward-looking solutions to forest management challenges have left a lasting imprint on the Canadian forest. Canada’s forests represent about 10 percent of the forests worldwide and with that responsibility the CFS is taking a leadership role on the international stage. The Canadian Forest Service: CATALYST FOR THE FOREST SECTOR anada is defined by its forests. They are the country’s dominant geograph- ical feature. They are also of central importance in the lives of Canadians, Cwhose attitudes toward their forests have changed over time. A little more than a century ago, an entirely new way of thinking about forests and the uses to which they could be put, evolved. The idea of the per- CFS’s expertise at providing a sound, scientific foundation for the petual forest emerged, a forest maintained forever by human evolving economic and social policies that determine the fate of effort, employing scientific management practices. Canada’s forests. Since then, there has been a steady evolution of that concept. Today, as we enter a new phase of the human relationship with THE CANADIAN FOREST: LIQUIDATION TO CONSERVATION forests, the scientific foundations of forest management, in com- bination with new social objectives, are more important than The mythical Canadian forest—an eternal pristine wilderness ever. Throughout this period, a single, small agency, now known unaltered by human intervention—has never existed. Until about as the Canadian Forest Service, led development of scientific for- 10,000 years ago, for several hundred centuries, virtually all of est management in Canada. -

N O R T H A M ER ican F O R E S T C ommi SS ion ( N A F C ) Atmospheric Change and Forests Working Group The Working Group on Atmospheric Change and Forests was established in 1984 when acid rain was a major global issue. The focus in the early years was on “atmospheric deposition.” In 1986, the group was also asked to consider broader climate change issues. As a result, most of the current working group members are scientists whose interests and expertise have evolved over the years to include the broader aspects of climate change. Current Activities/Impacts Recently, the Atmospheric Change and Forests Working Group has focused efforts on exchanging technologies and approaches used in the three countries to study, assess and forecast the impact of atmospheric changes on forests. Particular areas of assessing impact include species distribution and environmental niche change, process changes (such as Mission carbon cycling) as well as the effects of forest fire. The Atmospheric Change and Forests Working Group promotes In support of its objectives, the Atmospheric Change and the knowledge of forest ecosystems through science and Forests WG has jointly initiated a manuscript for submission monitoring of the effects of atmospheric changes on forests, to a peer reviewed journal. This manuscript aims to address and through cooperation and dissemination of new technologies the rationale for trilateral collaboration on the impacts of and techniques. atmospheric changes in North American forests. Objectives • Promote the collection, exchange and dissemination of information and techniques in the field of monitoring of forest health and the evaluation of the effects of atmospheric changes on forests.
