Wood: The Most Natural Resource

A group in Washington State recently published a website discussing why wood products are green.  They state, “Working forests are nature’s gift to the economy, the environment and our energy needs. The fact is, private forestry is Washington State’s original ”green’ industry. It is sustainable, renewable and environmentally friendly. It creates jobs and economic opportunity. Private forests may also hold the key to our nation’s energy future.” Learn more at www.themostnaturalresource.com.
