## Activities

**Objects:** TO PROMOTE, FOR THE BENEFIT OF THE PUBLIC, THE CONSERVATION, PROTECTION AND IMPROVEMENT OF THE NATURAL ENVIRONMENT BY PROMOTING AND COMMISSIONING RESEARCH INTO HARDWOOD FORESTRY AND IN PARTICULAR RESEARCH INTO THE GROWING AND IMPROVEMENT OF BRITISH HARDWOOD SPECIES, AND THE DISSEMINATION OF THE USEFUL RESULTS OF ANY SUCH RESEARCH. TO ADVANCE THE EDUCATION OF THE PUBLIC IN THE SCIENTIFIC RESEARCH WORK OF THE BRITISH AND IRISH HARDWOODS IMPROVEMENT PROGRAMME AND IN SUSTAINABLE FOREST AND WOODLAND MANAGEMENT. (SUSTAINABLE FOREST AND WOODLAND MANAGEMENT IS DEFINED AS BEING DEVELOPMENT THAT MEETS THE NEEDS OF THE PRESENT WITHOUT COMPROMISING THE ABILITY OF FUTURE GENERATIONS TO MEET THEIR OWN NEEDS.)

**Activities:** We envision that all productive forests and woodlands in the UK will contain a proportion of selected or genetically improved trees to enhance diversity and resilience to climate change, pests and diseases. The wood they produce will be used in the construction of net zero carbon buildings, locking up carbon for decades and helping to mitigate the impacts of climate change.
