Canada tops the list of certified forest by total acres and by %
 According to United Nations most recent Global Forest Resources Assessment, approximately 11% of the world’s forestland – about 1 billion acres (426 million hectares) – is certified, with the majority of certified forestland in North America and Europe. Canada has by far the most with 413 million acres (167 million hectares) certified. 
Certification labels are a quick and easy way to tell consumers that the wood fiber in the paper products they buy and use comes from sustainably managed forests.
 
The certification systems behind those labels provide the proof that’s true. The United Nations describes sustainable forest management as a “dynamic and evolving concept that aims to maintain and enhance the economic, social and environmental value of forests for the benefit of present and future generations.” Forest certification, which covers the certification of actual forestland, assures that forests are responsibly managed in line with challenging environmental, social and economic requirements.
