How do we turn global biodiversity goals into measurable local impact? Responsible forest management can help.

FSC's globally consistent standards are adapted to local realities in more than 100 countries. We work with people on the ground – where forests are managed, restored, and protected – connecting those efforts to global impact.

And through Verified Impact – our solution to measure and demonstrate real outcomes – we support forest managers in showing the benefits their forests provide – including biodiversity protection.

Watch FSC’s Policy and Performance Director @‌Joanna Nowakowska explain how working with local communities and blending public and private finance can help achieve the goals of the Global Biodiversity Framework. https://www.youtube.com/watch?si=bLNxT3XZ4Iv02A2F&v=jcX5QHx85Tg&feature=youtu.be

Bees are among nature’s most important pollinators - sustaining forests, biodiversity, food systems, and life on Earth.

Malaysia is home to incredible bee diversity, including the giant honey bee (Apis dorsata 大蜜蜂), famous for building massive honeycombs high on the towering Tualang tree (Koompassia excelsa), known locally as Mangaris (Sabah), and Tapang (Sarawak).

The Tualang tree and giant honey bee share one of the rainforest’s most remarkable mutually beneficial relationships. Tualang trees can grow up to 88 metres tall, with smooth, slippery bark that helps protect the bee colonies from predators such as sun bears. In return, the bees help protect the trees - as living Tualang trees are often valued more for their prized wild honey than for timber, encouraging their protection by local and Indigenous communities.

For generations, Indigenous communities in Borneo have sustainably harvested wild Tualang honey - a practice deeply connected to culture, forest stewardship, and respect for nature. In some parts of Sarawak, Tapang trees are traditionally protected and never felled unless naturally fallen.
Tualang honey, produced from diverse rainforest flowers, is highly valued for its unique qualities and therapeutic properties.

This World Bee Day, let’s protect pollinators and the forests they depend on 🌏🐝🌳

Today, we celebrate 100 years of Sir David Attenborough 💚 a voice that helped the world fall in love with nature.

For many of us working in forests, conservation, and sustainability, his documentaries were more than films. They were reminders that tropical forests are living worlds - rich with life, wonder, complexity, and deep interconnectedness.

From towering dipterocarps to orangutans, hornbills, elephants, rivers, fungi, insects, and Indigenous communities who have cared for these landscapes for generations - tropical forests are among the greatest natural treasures on Earth.

But perhaps one of Sir David’s greatest contributions was not only showing us beauty, but helping humanity understand responsibility.

That protecting forests is inseparable from protecting our shared future.

That climate, biodiversity, water, livelihoods, and people are deeply connected.

And that how we manage our forests matters.

As an organisation promoting sustainable forestry, we remain hopeful that science, collaboration, credible stewardship, and deeper respect for nature can help ensure tropical forests continue to thrive - not only as places of biodiversity, but as living systems that support communities and future generations.

Thank you, Sir David Attenborough, for inspiring millions to look closer, care deeper, and protect what remains.

What we protect today will shape the future of life tomorrow - for wildlife, for communities, and for generations to come.
Happy 100th Birthday. 🌏🌳💚
