California Forest Futures 2005 is now behind us.
However, the partnerships, policies and planning necessary to sustain
the health and breadth of our state’s forests – and make
them more economically viable as productive forestlands for generations
to come – must continue to be successfully established, enacted
and executed.
The
UC Center for Forestry and the Pacific
Forest Trust will continue to explore
strategic solutions that Stop Loss and Spur Progress. And, based on
the overwhelming enthusiasm generated from the conference, it looks
like we will have many allies in our efforts.
To all those who attended, we thank you for your participation and your
passion. To those who could not attend (and for those who did but want
review the proceedings), we hope you will find the conference abstracts
and presentations posted here helpful as you move forward with your
forest programs and projects.
Also, check back here this Fall as we are planning to publish a white
paper summarizing the information and proposals presented during the
conference. Copies and/or downloadable PDFs will be made available through
this web site.
We hope these resources will be useful to you in your work and that
you will share the information, insight and ideas you’ve gained
here and at the conference with others you know who are concerned about
the future of California's forests.
