We are strongly committed to continuous improvement in our performance related to environmental stewardship, social responsibility and strong governance, and we are equally committed to transparently sharing our successes and challenges along the way.

Our website serves as our primary method to communicate our sustainability strategy, progress and performance, and we update it annually in accordance with internationally recognized sustainability reporting standards and practices. We also offer printable resources, a blog of case studies illustrating our commitment to sustainability, and an opportunity to provide feedback on our website. Annual updates to our sustainability reporting are reviewed and approved by our corporate law department. Guidance on our sustainability reporting alignment with major ESG frameworks and indices can be found here: ESG Framework Alignment. The data in this table covers the period January 1, 2024 to December 31, 2024.

1The metrics disclosed are clearcut acres. Variable retention silviculture in select locations not included.
2We are committed to reforesting 100% of harvested acres. This number is less than 100% due to two main factors: lands enrolled in mitigation banks are managed for ecological outcome and areas impacted by wildfire or other natural disturbances may prevent successful reforestation. If lands are not successfully reforested within five years, we implement management actions, such as interplanting, to ensure our forests are healthy and productive.
