The Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO), a specialised agency of the United Nations, released a video to promote the International Day of Forests which has been organized since 2013. The video was made in cooperation with the Finnish Forest Association:
International Day of Forests 2024: Forests and Innovation – New Solutions for a Better World https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dP7JMsqtrZI
The key message of the video is that materials derived from forests and trees are being developed as sustainable substitutes for plastics, building materials, fabrics, medicines, and other everyday supplies. Forests are a valuable and finite natural resource; through innovative utilization, it is possible to conduct sustainable operations and produce environmentally-friendly products.
The video has been translated into 46 languages and published globally: https://www.fao.org/international-day-of-forests/video/en/
