"I look out 20, 30, 40 years and we think about a world of 10 billion people. We think about a world that the gross world product will triple; that's like putting three of the world's economies on the same planet. And when you think about that weight of economic activity, it drives you to thinking about sustainability as central to everything, and so then I thought about the forestry sector as really, a source of sustainability solutions."
