Exactly how much are #Georgia's #forests worth? $36 billion. #Jobs, products galore (toilet paper, anyone?) #wildlife habitat, clean #water and air, recreation and so much more. #ForestProductsWeek @ForestAmerica ow.ly/9EPH50BZH1s
Presidential Proclamation focuses on forest landowners. #forestproductsweek
"It is imperative we safeguard our domestic supply of timber, provide economic security for our forest landowners, & maintain viability of this critical aspect of our economy."

Really appreciate @envivabiomass's efforts to highlight job creation aspect of their sector. We put people to work, every day. Important to remember, remind and celebrate. #jobsgrowontrees xitter.cf/EnvivaBiomass/status/9…
Enviva creates good jobs in the communities in which we work. Altogether, we directly employ nearly 700 people in the Southeastern US, and support almost 2,000 jobs across our supply chain. #StrongCommunities #JobCreation #EconomicDevelopment
#AtlBizChron A new $135 million plant will have a big impact on annual softwood lumber production for Georgia-@GeorgiaPacific: bizj.us/1pia3m
Once more for the folks in balcony to hear. Thanks for weighing in. So important that demand for wood of all qualities experiences some demand. #workingforestswork xitter.cf/APEGWoodPros/status/96…
Southern Ohio is drowning in wood waste. We need a "boom" in the consumption of that waste here in the region. #wood #biomass #gasification xitter.cf/ForestAmerica/status/9…
Catch our Joe Mayo at the #MassTimber Conference in Portland this March! He'll explore legislative funding, architecture & construction of 3 #CLT classroom additions in Western WA. @forestbusiness masstimberconference.com
Great piece about role #biomass is playing in decarbonizing power and the unfortunate, but predictable backlash against it. Thank you Marcus Kauffman @ORdeptforestry goo.gl/9gpKTx
Logs are graded as they come into the log yard before they are put into production. #hardwoodlumber #hardwoods #lumber #sustainability #design #interiordesign #architecture #nwh #alder #greenbuilding
These types of announcements, adorned with artist's renderings are becoming increasingly common and we love it. #masstimber #marketsmatter xitter.cf/pfbarnum/status/960918…

We need more posts like this one. 1. Passion for forests is evident. 2. Strong understanding of role of forest management on forest health. 3. A working forest that is clearly supporting wildlife. #workingforestswork xitter.cf/WattsInTheWoods/status…
As Richard knows, these forests have done so well because their owners have invested in them because of strong market demand for logs, pulp and fiber. #workingforestswork xitter.cf/BioenergyInfo/status/9…
"Forests of the Southern US have increased in productivity and abundance
over the last six decades." Richard Peberdy, VP of Sustainability @DraxBiomass gives his 2018 Outlook in our new issue. Get your copy here: bioenergy-news.com/register_… @Draxnews
We love it. #jobsgrowontrees xitter.cf/DraxBiomass/status/956…
Any photograph that we see that shows actual people working in the forest products sector gets an instant RT. Tag us when you tweet. Love it. #jobsgrowontrees xitter.cf/NWH_Inc/status/9554666…

Add this to the list of reasons #workingforestswork xitter.cf/WAWorkingForest/status…
Young trees absorb more CO2 than old ones, making working forests part of a carbon solution. bit.ly/2n2fOng

Hard to pick a favorite from this recent op-ed by Jib A. Davidson, but his closing stanza is just great. @foresters #workingforestswork goo.gl/NLU7PA
Spend 5 minutes looking at these incredible photos. One of the captions mentions that one of the employees has been there for 47 years. Can't celebrate forest products manufacturing jobs enough. #jobsgrowontrees xitter.cf/_walknthewoods/status/…
Pencils are a legacy forest product, and the @nytimes takes us on a stunning photo tour of one of America’s last pencil factories #ForestProud #pencils nytimes.com/2018/01/12/magaz… #forestproducts
Worth 5 minutes of your time. People. At Work. Making Stuff. Because of trees. We love it. #jobsgrowontrees xitter.cf/_walknthewoods/status/…

Lots of misinformation out there on this issue. You had us at "Letter from scientists actually working with these issues". #workingforestswork xitter.cf/HellesHelena/status/95…

Lots of activity on #FireFixNow over the last few days. Megafires have become all too common. #WorkingForestsWork xitter.cf/CongMikeSimpson/status…
2017 was the most expensive fire season ever. In fact, itisn’t a fire season anymore, it’s a fire year. We need a #FireFixNow to solve
the issue of a fire-borrowing and allow land managers to do the necessary work
to prevent catastrophic fires.
