Enhanced Sustainable Forest Management: Widened riparian buffers for enhanced habitat and water quality. In 2023, TIG and The Nature Conservancy identified a set of priority forest management practices aimed at enhancing the health of important ecological areas within our portfolio. These practices are adapted to the local ecosystems where they are applied. One of these practices is the delineation of widened streamside (or “riparian”) forest buffers. What It Means: During harvesting operations, we leave forested streamside buffers that are wider than the requirements of our third-party forest certification standard or the recommendations of local Best Management Practices (BMPs). Why It Matters: These wider buffers can play a vital role in maintaining water quality, protecting ecologically important streamside forests, and reducing wider temperature, thereby supporting aquatic biodiversity. Integrating these widened riparian buffers into our forest operations and harvest plans is just one of the practices we are implementing as part of our commitment to fostering healthier ecosystems and ensuring the sustainability of our forests.

As part of our collaboration with The Nature Conservancy, we developed a set of forest management practices designed to enhance biodiversity across a range of forest types. The below graphic provides an illustration of these different practices. Over the coming weeks, we’ll be highlighting how these practices work on the ground to deliver impact on the parts of TIG’s core U.S. portfolio that contain the most significant areas of biodiversity. We’ve begun integration of these recommendations into our forest management plans and hope to target nearly 5,600 acres of biodiversity-focused forest management in the next year.

We’re thrilled to announce a significant milestone for conservation efforts in the Appalachian region of Ohio through the sale of a parcel of land to the Appalachia Ohio Alliance (AOA), a non-profit organization devoted to regional environmental conservation. The 280-acre parcel is located in Hocking County, a popular recreation area close to Columbus, and is adjacent to Salt Creek, an exceptional warmwater habitat classified as an Outstanding State Water.  The conservation of the forest will help protect important habitat for local biodiversity and support downstream water quality, fitting into the AOA’s greater Hocking Hills initiative, which focuses on the protection of riparian corridors and water quality. The Nature Conservancy, with whom TIG has an ongoing collaboration, identified this parcel as having high conservation value and importance for permanent protection. This is a prime example of the benefits of collaboration for people, climate and nature.

In celebration of World Biodiversity Day, we are proud to announce the release of our new #whitepaper on our collaboration with The Nature Conservancy seeking to develop management interventions that deliver biodiversity and climate benefits at a meaningful scale across our million-plus acre core U.S. timberland portfolio, while maintaining or potentially enhancing economic value.    Since the launch of the collaboration, our teams have been hard at work evaluating all aspects of the existing portfolio to inform future strategic decisions, setting portfolio-wide targets for impact, and building rigorous impact management systems and tools.    In the coming weeks, we'll be diving into different aspects of this work, but in the meantime, follow the link below to download the full paper. https://lnkd.in/e8CmZHPX #sustainablefinance #sustainableforestry #biodiversityday #timberland #collaboration Charlotte Kaiser, David Duncan, David Cassels, Mark Wishnie, Gerrity Lansing, Mitchell Kosches, Peyton Ellis, Ekaterina Alexandrova, Catherine Burns, David Schnake, Benjamin Rothfuss Dair, Jacquelyn Wallace, Amanda Minto, Tim Sullivan, Zackary Chaudhry, Rodrigo Bandeira, Maria Clara Uquillas, Carol Lee
