Abstract
We are entering a new period in which resources and
knowledge need to be combined in new ways to improve
control over natural resource use. This offers new
potential for the sustainable creation of wealth and
well-being globally and nationally, and nations with high
forest resources can make a marked contribution to this
process. In order for this happen, changes in
policy-making, socio-economic behaviour and business
models are essential. Sustainable values and concerns
about oil dependency are not only political issues, but
clearly an increasing megatrend among consumers and
brand-owners alike.
