 The best way to explain forest carbon is so for trees to grow they use photosynthesis. They remove carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and that through that process carbons converted into sugars and oxygen that sugars use for food throughout the tree and with the carbon that's within that sugar is distributed throughout the tree from the leaves through the wood the bark all the way to the roots. Our forest benefit us in terms of carbon by sequestering which is removing carbon dioxide from the atmosphere through photosynthesis. Basically if you're in a forest setting anything you see within that forest is going to be tied to forest carbon in general. In terms of carbon emission what makes the forest industry and the wood products markets and industries you know kind of unique in terms of the whole carbon aspect is one the renewable resources they're sustainable so we can continue to sequester carbon to bring carbon in from the atmosphere and store it and even when those forest and trees are turned into forest products that carbon remains stored in those products. At an early age I was introduced to forestry and forestry management and you know I was really intrigued by that I was really intrigued by the fact that you could have a career working in a forest assisting landowners with making decisions with their forest and managing those forest long term and I knew early on that that was something I wanted to do and I had the opportunity to follow that career path and kind of ended up where I am now.
