Describe the process(es) your organization has in place to ensure that your engagement activities are consistent with your overall climate change strategy[…]Our entire business depends on the sustainability of forests. We will continue to ensure responsible forest stewardship to ensure healthy and productive forest ecosystems for generations to come. Sylvamo maintains longstanding partnerships with several of the world's largest and most respected environmental and conservation organizations to restore and protect forests and advance the understanding of the role of forests as natural climate solutions. Local, national and global efforts to address the projected impacts of climate change should reflect a balance among environmental, social and economic considerations for individuals, countries, and regions. Efforts to reduce emissions must preserve the competitiveness of our regional businesses, including avoiding economic and emissions "leakage."
Sylvamo's Government Relations team's mission is to mitigate risks and seize opportunities by advocating with national, regional and local governments. We accomplish this by:
•Educating stakeholders about our key issues and implementing policy priorities
•Building and maintaining relationships with legislators, regulators, NGOs, embassy officials and trade associations
•Communicating the Sylvamo Framework
•Protecting and enhancing our corporate reputation
