~ National Forestry Day 2023 ~
🌲 The Australian Forest Products Association (AFPA) celebrates National Forestry Day and highlights the critical role of Australia's forest products sector.
🏭 The sector supports regional communities, fights climate change, and contributes to the national economy.
It produces essential and sustainable products that Australians use every day.
💚 AFPA Acting CEO, Natasa Sikman, urges everyone to recognise the importance of the forest products sector in our daily lives.
From timber house frames to cardboard boxes, hardwood tables to toilet paper, these products rely on the sustainable and renewable practices of the sector.
👥 The sector also provides approximately 180,000 direct and indirect jobs and supports local communities, many of which have relied on forestry for generations.
🌿 With the expected quadruple increase in demand for timber and wood fiber by 2050, the Australian forest products sector leads the world in sustainable forest management.
Their environmental management practices serve as an example to other nations.
Let's celebrate National Forestry Day and appreciate the vital contributions of Australia's forest products sector! 🌳
