SUMMARY:Online Learning Session: U.S. Forest Sustainability in the 21st Century
DESCRIPTION:Strengthening Families\, Communities\, and Livelihoods \n\n\n\n\n\nFeaturing: Katie Fernholz\, Dovetail Partners \n\n\n\nFor the past 30 years\, certification has been a key benchmark for forest sustainability. While valuable\, traditional certification methods can present cost and technical barriers. Today\, advanced risk assessment\, data analysis\, and public reporting tools provide more accessible and effective solutions—enhancing sustainability without limiting supply chain transparency or reinforcing marketplace inequities. \n\n\n\nJoin us as we explore how sustainable forest management can address critical issues like affordable housing\, workforce development\, public health\, and youth education. How can we better connect modern sustainability tools with the needs of families\, communities\, and livelihoods? What strategies can drive positive outcomes for both forests and people in 2025?

SUMMARY:Online Learning Session: International Paper’s ForSite® Mapping Tool: Demonstrating Responsible Fiber Sourcing and Sustainable Forest Management Throughout the Supply Chain
DESCRIPTION:In 2015\, International Paper (IP) developed a GIS-based mapping platform to identify environmental risks within their fiber procurement supply chain. What started as a pilot project in the Southeastern United States\, evolved into a large-scale mapping and due diligence system called ForSite® that fundamentally changed the way IP procures fiber.  Similar to approaches found in forest management certification standards\, ForSite® ensures that conservation practices are incorporated pre-purchase. Over the years\, IP’s approach has resulted in demonstrating successful risk mitigation to their stakeholders while supporting and promoting private forest landowners and working forests. ForSite® continues to be enthusiastically received by IP’s end customers\, and conservation organizations and was recently awarded ESRI’s Special Achievement in GIS. \nTo learn more about ForSite® watch this video: https://youtu.be/xlWMF0EHpQI \nDate/Time: September 25\, 2024\, 2 p.m.\, Eastern Time \nSpeaker: Jeremy Poirier\, CWB®\, Senior Manager Fiber Certification and Sustainability\, International Paper \nRegister: https://us02web.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_Ak26gPoqQqCjwYCtOo6wTA

SUMMARY:Landowner Learning Session: Decoding the Chevron Doctrine
DESCRIPTION:On June 28th\, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled 6-3 in a landmark decision to overturn the Chevron Doctrine\, which for 40 years gave federal agencies the authority to interpret ambiguous language from Congress when crafting regulations. This decision marks a significant change in the regulatory landscape\, especially for environmental regulations that may impact forest landowners. In this Landowner Learning Session\, hear from Charles Yates\, attorney in Pacific Legal Foundation’s environmental practice group\, about the history of the Chevron Doctrine and how this decision by the Supreme Court may change how Congress\, the agencies\, and the courts approach environmental laws and regulations moving forward. \n  \n  \n

SUMMARY:Government Affairs On the Ground: FLA's Grassroots Tour - Stop 1: Louisiana
DESCRIPTION:Private forest landowners across the country are facing pressure and uncertainty in the face of evolving markets\, regulations\, legislative landscapes\, and increased transparency in our operations. For over 80 years\, The Forest Landowners Association (FLA) has been a steadfast advocate for your interests on these issues. Now more than ever\, it’s imperative that we amplify our efforts to ensure success. \nAs a grassroots advocacy organization\, our strength lies in your participation. While the FLA team tirelessly advocates for your interests on Capitol Hill and with federal agencies\, it’s your direct engagement that holds the greatest sway. Policymakers need to hear from you about how legislative and regulatory measures directly impact your forestland and livelihood. Our SET to GO program offers a platform for practical and effective engagement with these policymakers and partners to advance the priorities that are crucial to landowners nationwide. It is essential that we bolster this program to ensure your voice is heard. \nWe invite you to join us Wednesday\, April 10th at the Southern Forest Heritage Museum in Long Leaf\, Louisiana for lunch and a short program to discuss current policy priorities\, what it means to serve on an Engagement Team\, and how we can work together to make a change in forest policy. \nSuccess starts with you. Several years ago\, a single landowner approached FLA about the issue of casualty loss in the tax code. From that conversation\, the Disaster Reforestation Act was formed\, and we are currently closer than ever to fixing that disparity. \nYour voice matters\, and your active participation in our policy work is pivotal in shaping our collective future. We look forward to your presence and collaboration. \nWHAT: Government Affairs on the Ground: FLA’s Grassroots Tour\nWHEN: Wednesday\, April 10th\, 12-2 pm Central Time\nWHERE: The Southern Forest Heritage Museum;\n77 Long Leaf Road\, Long Leaf\, LA 7144\nWHO: FLA members in Louisiana \nThis event is open to all landowners in Louisiana.

SUMMARY:Landowner Learning Series: Large-scale wild fungal inoculation in forestry to improve productivity and carbon sequestration
DESCRIPTION:Around the world\, governments and corporations have taken responsibility for addressing the climate crisis and signs of major biodiversity collapse. At the center of this discourse has been forests’ fundamental role in global climate strategy – including timber forests being managed for harvest. However\, historically\, most working forest landscapes have been managed for one thing: timber. Today\, we need to ask ourselves\, how do we best manage working forests for timber but also biodiversity and carbon drawdown? Funga has identified an opportunity to align timber\, carbon\, and biodiversity outcomes. That opportunity lives below our feet\, in the soil\, in the forest fungal microbiome. Most trees on Earth form a core\, symbiotic partnership with fungi on their roots. These fungi are critical to how trees access growth-limiting soil resources\, and as such\, underpin the health and resilience of entire forest ecosystems. Our research identifies whole communities of native forest fungi directly linked to forest health\, tree growth\, and carbon capture rates – with Funga bringing to market a first-of-its-kind climate solution powered by below-ground microbiome restoration. Funga’s technologies aim to operationalize this relationship through proprietary DNA sequencing and machine learning technologies that identify and reintroduce real\, natural biodiverse fungal communities needed to optimize forest production and reforestation.\nWho: Ian Ware\, Lead Scientist at Funga\, Josh Parrish\, Chief Growth Officer at Funga\, and Anthony Seliskar\, Landowner Engagement Manager at Funga\nWhen: March 14\, 2024\, 2:00 p.m.\, ET

SUMMARY:Landowner Learning Series: Advocacy in Action: How FLA's Grassroots Engagement Impacts Policy
DESCRIPTION:One of FLA’s priorities is ensuring regulations allow private forest landowners to continue managing their working forests and be economically successful. In order to be effective\, policy work is vital. \nIn 2021\, we set up FLA’s SET to GO teams (State Engagement Team to Grassroots Optimization) program. This program gives America’s forestry owners and those engaged in all aspects of private forests an effective means to make their collective voices heard by policymakers at all levels. \nSignificant steps have been made in 2023 to utilize these teams to engage with members of Congress effectively. Learn how FLA members have made an impact with 14 members of Congress through in-person meetings\, farm bill listening sessions this year and how you can be more involved.
