Welcome to ForestWorks, the show that talks about all things forestry — the people, the stories and the places of British Columbia’s single largest industry.

ForestWorks is brought to you by Resource Works, looking at how responsible development of British Columbia’s natural resources creates jobs and incomes throughout the province, both directly and indirectly, while maintaining a clean and healthy environment.

In his work with Forsite Consultants forester Cam Brown has become adept at the science of mapping timber supply, along with tenure management, economic analysis, and silviculture planning. He recently put some Sierra Club claims under the microscope, and found them lacking. Join us to hear the details.
