To solve problems caused by conventional forest management, forest certification has emerged as a driver of sustainable forest management. Several sustainable forest management certification systems exist, including the Forest Stewardship Council and those endorsed by the Programme for the Endorsement of Forest Certification, such as the Canadian Standards Association -Sustainable Forestry Management Standard CAN/CSA -Z809 and Sustainable Forestry Initiative. For consumers to use certified products to meet their own sustainability goals, they must have an understanding of the effectiveness of different certification systems. To understand the relative performance of three systems, we determined
Business · Certification · Certified wood · Environmental planning · Environmental resource management · Forest management · Geography · Nature Conservation · Political science · Sustainable forest management · Environmental Science · Environmental Sustainability in Business · Forest Management and Policy · Global trade, sustainability, and social impact · Ecology · Forestry
