Focus

Why is Everwood committed to the forest-wood sector?

Forests are essential in the fight against climate change, particularly due to their ability to store carbon. Globally, forest ecosystems store over 660 billion tons of carbon, distributed between soils and living biomass. Forests absorb approximately 7.6 billion tons of CO₂ annually, which accounts for about 30% of global CO₂ emissions from human activities.
Currently, the global forest management market is rapidly expanding, with an estimated value of over $9.77 billion by 2033.

The value of forests is measured through various indicators:
  • Environmental: They host 75% of biodiversity, regulate water cycles, and protect soils from erosion.
  • Economic: They provide renewable raw materials, particularly wood, which can replace high-carbon footprint materials like concrete or steel.
  • Social: They are a significant source of employment for millions of people worldwide.

However, forests are increasingly threatened by climate change, which reduces their capacity to sequester carbon.

In response to these challenges, Everwood is committed to:

  • Promoting sustainable and resilient forest management to enhance their role as carbon sinks.
  • Supporting the digitalization of forestry methods to create a more efficient forest-wood sector.
  • Preserving natural capital by assisting forest owners in maximizing the ecosystem services of their forests and identifying new revenue opportunities beyond traditional timber harvesting.
  • Actively contributing to the structuring and development of the sector in France and internationally, highlighting wood energy as a renewable energy source.

By investing in the forest-wood sector, Everwood aims to actively contribute to the ecological transition while addressing the economic and social challenges associated with forest conservation and development.
