The Doyon Native Community Forest Project encompasses 172,737 acres of boreal forest in Alaska. It is part of a larger landholding received by Doyon, Limited under the Alaska Native Settlements Act. The project focuses on improved forest management practices, aiming to enhance carbon storage and conservation value compared to private lands in the region. The project prioritizes sustainable growth, maintenance harvests, and forest health, ensuring long-term sustainable management and preventing commercial timber harvesting. By maintaining forest CO2 stocks above the regional baseline, the project contributes to carbon sequestration and provides significant climate benefits. Additionally, it aims to preserve the environmental benefits offered by the old growth sections of the forest.
This project meets 5 of the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)

UPM The BigCoast Forest Climate Initiative in Coastal British Columbia protects 40,000 hectares of private land, deferring logging for 25 years. This preserves ancient trees, critical ecosystems, and wildlife habitats. Over its lifespan, the initiative will reduce over 20 million tonnes of carbon dioxide emissions. It showcases responsible environmental stewardship and serves as a model for similar conservation efforts globally.

The Beidler Improved Forest Management Project encompasses 5,548 acres of land owned by the National Audubon Society in South Carolina. The project focuses on the sustainable management of native hardwood and softwood species, including bald cypress, black gum, red maple, sweet gum, water oak, loblolly pine, spruce, and longleaf pine. The land was previously privately and commercially managed for timber production but has now been placed under a permanent conservation easement, preventing further active management or timber harvests. The project aims to preserve the natural habitat and ecological integrity of the area for the long term.
