From Woods to Goods: How consumer choices affect our forests

Andrew Mitchell, CEO of the Global Canopy Programme and Dr Connie McDermott, Chair of the Ecosystem Governance group at the Environmental Change Institute, will take you on a journey to some of the world’s most remote tropical forests, all the way… to the supermarket shelves. Through this fascinating adventure from wood to goods, you will learn about how we are changing the state of our forests, and what we can do as consumers to reverse their fate.

Each speaker will talk for about 20 minutes and the event will be followed by Q&A.  Click here to register online.
