Biodiversity plays a major role in forest health—and is a key component of sustainable forest management and Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) certification. Healthy forests support more species, improve habitat, and add long-term value to landowners and communities.
In this episode of Forest Matters, NativState Wildlife Biologist Kevin Wood explains what biodiversity really means, why it matters for working forests, and how managing for species health creates broader benefits—from water quality to wildlife habitat to carbon markets.
Kevin also covers:
• How forest health and biodiversity are connected
• Indicator & keystone species
• Human impacts on waterways and habitat
• FSC criteria for biodiversity and conservation
• How biodiversity increases carbon credit value
• How NativState supports landowners with habitat management
