FSC Label Ensures Supporting Sustainability

Have you seen a label that helps consumers identify eco-friendly and socially responsible products or services?

Have you ever spotted a label with a tree on the back of the product while going shopping? Perhaps on food at the grocery store or paper products, you’ve seen a label that says FSC. The FSC is a forest certified system that works to protect and maintain healthy habitats, forests and fight climate change. 

FSC stands for the Forest Stewardship Council. The label is a marking that ensures the product causes zero deforestation so there is no loss of trees over time. The organization also uses community rights, has a good work environment, and supports the change from preservation to conservation. This label can be found on many consumer products. See if the FSC logo is on the everyday items you buy! 

The label also supports community rights. This shows that the company is respecting resources and people around the area are consulted for rights to forests and land. In addition it encourages change from preservation to conservation. Instead of a zero use policy, species are encouraged to reproduce and use sustainability. Lastly, the organization makes sure that workers are being paid fair wages and they have proper training. 

Maintaining our limited forests is vital to helping fight climate change. Due to this, the FSC strongly believes in valuing the forests and constantly works to protect them. The FSC supports sustainability by using their label to prove the protection of workers and forests, educate the public, and more. Through these efforts, they protect our vital forests and contribute to the fight against climate change. With them, we can make a world where communities and forests thrive and define responsible forestry.
