Current Initiatives

Bioenergy from forests is the energy generated from the combustion of wood and wood wastes, or biofuels derived from wood.

Climate-positive forest products have the potential to deliver massive climate change mitigation benefits when substituted for other traditional resource-intensive inputs under specific conditions and with appropriate safeguards.

Ecosystem restoration —the process of assisting the recovery of an ecosystem that has been degraded, damaged, or destroyed— is regarded as a crucial approach to achieving Sustainable Development Goals and delivering multiple environmental, social, and economic benefits.

Forests are widely recognized as substantial components for climate change mitigation and adaptation, bringing the attention of the global community to sustainable forest management.

There are a number of strands to the genesis of The Forests Dialogue’s Tree Plantations in the Landscape (TPL) initiative. All have their origins in recognition that planted forests, including tree plantations established for wood production, continue to grow in both extent and significance.
