The forest hugger: A conversation Kathy Abusow

In episode six of ForestWorks' second season, Kathy Abusow joins Stewart for a conversation about responsible forestry, wood products and education.

Kathy Abusow, Sustainable Forestry Initiative President and CEO.

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.

Sustainable Forestry Initiative President and CEO Kathy Abusow joins us on ForestWorks this week. In her role since 2007, she has led the organization’s independent certification of sustainable forestry practices and expansion into conservation projects, education, and community building.

Join us every Monday morning for a new episode of ForestWorks on your favourite podcasting app. Or tune in to your local radio station for special episodes about the people, places, and stories of this important and often complicated industry that drives the BC economy.
