The panel consulted people across Ontario to help create a comprehensive forest policy framework, the cornerstones of which are a goal for Ontario's forests, 11 strategic objectives addressing major forest values, and 16 principles to guide people's behaviour in forest use and management. The framework also includes broad definitions for Ontario's forests, forest sustainability, community and resource use sustainability, and adaptive ecosystem management. This document describes the four main goals and outlines methods of implementation.

Since its original publication by the International Institute for Environment and Development in 1999, Policy That Works for Forests and People has been recognised as the most authoritative study to date of policy processes that affect forests and people. Providing a thorough analysis of the issues, options and factors that determine different outcomes and bolstered by a major annex containing tools and tactics, the book offers clear and practical advice on how to formulate, manage and implement policies appropriate to different contexts. These are policies that result in real improvements in the governance, use and economic benefits that can flow from forests to those who depend upon them. This book is essential reading for policy-makers, forestry practitioners and academics and students in all areas of forest policy, management and governance.

Drivers of change are overarching forces that have changed conditions in the past, are influencing the present, and are anticipated to influence the future. For this report, we define drivers of change as influential direct or indirect forces expected to shape the future of U.S. forests and the forest sector over the next 20 years. This report explores eight drivers of change expected to influence forests and forestry in the United States over the next two decades: climate change, economic drivers of change, the forest products sector, technological change, demographic change, society's changing forest values, the exercise of Indigenous rights, and forestry education. Each paper is written by experts on the particular driver or by professional futurists. The set of drivers examined here is not intended to be comprehensive. These papers provide information about important drivers of change for use by policymakers and decision makers and contribute to the USDA Forest Service's comprehensive forest futures research portfolio.

"This report examines how forest management can affect the carbon (C) balance of Ontario's forests. Ten forest management activities organized in four themes were examined: stand establishment (site preparation, planting, and vegetation management), growth enhancement (thinning, fertilization, and genetic improvement), forest protection (from forest fires, and insect and disease infestations), and harvesting (controlling the area occupied by roads, skid trails and landings, and reducing the area disturbed by harvesting)."--Document.
