Trees at Work | Driving Conservation, Equity and Empowerment through Urban and Community Forestry

in Forest White Papers

Sponsored by Ontario Power Generation

Trees in urban and suburban settings are increasingly being seen as critical infrastructure, bringing a variety of positive benefits to a rapidly urbanizing world. This white paper explores some of the many ways that corporations around the world have utilized community forestry work to provide biodiversity uplift, ecosystem services and resident empowerment within a wide range of communities, as well as how strategic UCF projects can serve all three purposes.

This white paper serves as an extension of the WHC Across Fence Lines initiative, a U.S. Forest Service-funded effort focused on engaging corporations in a best-in-class, community-centered approach to urban and community forestry.

Fostering Corporate-Community Relations through Meaningful Engagement

in Awareness and Community Engagement White Papers

Sponsored by Stellantis

Meaningful community engagement that goes beyond transactional interactions or conventional corporate philanthropy can greatly enhance a company’s ability to establish, maintain or restore social license to operate (SLO). Obtaining SLO involves building trust with community members and leaders through environmental and socially responsible actions that are informed by local needs, and then communicated to community members. Once established, SLO needs to be maintained through ongoing community outreach, and engagement strategies should be kept current with an attention to new data, policy changes, and shifts in community opinions and needs. As the current biodiversity and climate crises become more dire, and more opportunities for the private sector to address these issues arise, expectations for companies to act quickly, transparently and in conjunction with scientific consensus will continue to grow.

Supporting the Global Pollinator Population Through Local Action

in Pollinators White Papers

Sponsored by BASF

Given the interconnectivity of habitats and regions, and the key role pollinators play in global food production and trade, the collapse in pollinator populations poses threats to global biodiversity, food security and economic prosperity. It’s therefore critical that companies worldwide take action, contributing to the network of regional pollinator (and pollinator education) initiatives that together are addressing this global crisis.

The dedication to preserving local pollinators demonstrated through the featured case studies of this white paper can inspire acts of pollinator conservation on corporate lands of any size, in all industries and localities, meaning that any land manager can contribute to the global movement to protect these invaluable species.

This white paper explores the importance of Natural Climate Solutions (NCS) like sequestering carbon in soil and vegetation, installing green infrastructure for greater resiliency and biodiversity, and conducting NCS-oriented outreach. WHC-certified programs worldwide are already making big contributions to the fight against climate change, even if the programs’ stated goals speak to other environmental needs. Several of these programs are showcased in this paper, but countless others have created similar impact through their conservation, education and outreach work.

Conservation and Community Through Site-Specific Reclamation

in White Papers

End uses that encourage native species prosperity and connect to local and regional needs
Sponsored by Chemours

It’s hard to find a human activity that does not rely on the extraction, transport, processing or disposal of natural resources. While these activities can lead to some degree of habitat fragmentation or pollution while a facility is active, the reclamation work that takes place after operations cease creates new opportunities for habitat creation and connectivity, as well as unique ways to engage the surrounding community.

Small Scales, Big Impacts

in Habitat White Papers

How conservation makes positive impacts for biodiversity and community awareness despite limitations related to the amount of land, number of employees or the size of managed species.
Sponsored by Toyota

Thinking “smaller” provides private corporate landowners an accessible starting point for action. These actions could develop into gateways for conservation on larger landscapes, and for repetition of small acts of conservation across multiple locations. Designing small for biodiversity is a low risk exercise that can have a high rate of return when a successful small project can be highlighted as an unique but welcome addition to a corporate workplace.
