From recycled products to organic food, "environmentally friendly" is moving into the mainstream, including the forest industry. Retailers such as Home Depot have revised their purchasing and selling policies to give preference to certified wood. Forest Certification in Sustainable Development highlights the history, importance, and rewards of forest certification. The book discusses the issues involved in mainstream forestry as it is currently practiced, and what can be done to create sustainable forestry. The authors give you - step-by-step - the certification process practiced by the Rainforest Alliance's SmartWood.

Industry Reviews

"I do not know of another book on this topic that combines the theoretical with the practical in such a clear and concise fashion. The book's content ranges from the visionaryto the actual mechanics of a forest assessment. It is [an] in-depth and objective clarification of the Forest Stewardship Council principles and criteria for forest management." -Hank Cauley, Executive Director, Forest Stewardship Council-U.S.
