Article Synopsis
- The study explores the origins of timber species to determine if they come from natural forests or less regulated planted forests to evaluate the legality of global wood products.
- A new dataset, called Planted Forest Timber Data, was created, combining 'polygon' data from the World Resources Institute and 'non-polygon' data from research and government sources, covering multiple countries and species.
- This dataset aims to support global leaders in forest governance and policy-making, promoting legal timber trade and protecting biodiversity as it continues to expand and improve.
