How Your Business Can Help Protect Canada's Boreal Forest

Your business can make a measurable difference in three ways:

1. Endorse the Boreal Forest Conservation Framework
2. Help communicate the importance of protecting the Boreal Forest
3. Assess your Boreal footprint

Your company’s active support will increase awareness of this vast and amazing forest, and contribute to a solution that mitigates global warming and strikes the right balance between conservation and development.

What Happens After My Business Pledges Its Support for the Boreal Forest?

1. Public Recognition of Your Support for Boreal Protection

   Once your business endorses the Boreal Framework, it will receive public recognition of its support for the Boreal Forest in several ways, such as media releases and events, web site announcements, and advertising.

2. Communications: Getting the Word Out About the Boreal Forest

   There are many important ways your company can help build awareness of the Boreal Forest, including advertisements, articles, mailings/emailings to employees and customers, web site content, public support for progressive conservation policies, and dialogue with other businesses. We can provide information to help support these communication efforts including background information, comprehensive public opinion research, sample text, and vivid graphics.

3. Technical Assistance with Assessing Your Boreal Footprint

   Another tangible step you can take is to examine whether your business has an impact on the Boreal Forest – for example, whether any of the materials you use come from the Boreal and if so, whether those products are produced in an ecologically responsible manner. We can provide you with guidance on how to review your organization’s environmental footprint and procurement policies so that you can become a Boreal-friendly business.
