Over a third of all the land in the US and Canada is forest land, which is also a critical source of carbon capture and wood products from paper straws to building logs. This week, Scotty and Chris welcome the heads of both countries' forestry trade associations – Derek Nighbor of Forest Products Association Canada and Heidi Brock of the American Forest and Paper Association – for a discussion on best practices, sustainability, and cross-border collaboration in the industry.
