Forest Trends Press Room is the online resource for journalists to learn about our work in preserving the world's forests and improving local livelihoods. Since 1999, Forest Trends has worked with market-based mechanisms to build economic value into forests, to reward sustainable forest management and conservation commercially and to support communities and indigenous people who own and administer a large portion of the world's forest resources
