Impacts and Challenges The economic value of biodiversity is unrecognised and must be accounted for e.g. in a Stern-like report for biodiversity

NATURE MUST HAVE A PRICE!

Forestry – Wood – Chain (FWC) The Forestry – Wood – Chain (FWC) Sustainably Produced?

Forestry – Wood – Chain (FWC) The Forestry – Wood – Chain (FWC) ARE WE SURE TO BURN THE RIGHT THING?

ARE YOU IN THIS BUILDING TO COMPETE?

In a free market economy Production is following the demand! HOW DO WE REACT? In a free market economy Production is following the demand! Forestry should be supplying what is in demand and not what it is used to supply. Like in any business, one should adapt to changing market conditions.

A CHANGE IN PRIORITIES OF MULTIFUNCTIONALITY OF FORESTS Ecosystem services Nature conservation as an opportunity

BUT THEN – Exposing Wood Industry to ‘MERITS OF GLOBALIZATION’ IS THAT SUSTAINABLE?

e.g. 14 of the 15 EU member states are members of IUCN

We need to find the balance

JOIN We need to act now
