The roundtable developed 34 vision themes. The ten themes listed below reflect the themes
that received more than ten votes in the dotting exercise.
Roundtable organizing committee contact:
What we see as a vision for the forests of the future is a continuum of forests
from pristine wilderness to intensive fiber farms. We acknowledge that different ownerships
have
different uses and responsibilities and all ownersboth public and privatewill
generate some mix from the following values: ecological processes and functions including
natural, aquatic, and terrestrial diversity; economic values; recreation and other amenities; and
clean water and other environmental values. Forest practices should be carried out and
maintained to improve water quality, and private land owners and industry should work together
to ensure responsible logging. The cornerstone for achieving this goal of a diverse forest is
balanced environmental and economic forest education.
Roundtable organizing committee contact:
America's forests are a mosaic of ecosystems, managed to be sustainable over the long
term with the full and knowledgeable participation of all interests. Our forests support biological
diversity, ecological and evolutionary processes, and an array of cultural, social and economic
uses and benefits.
Roundtable organizing committee contact:
We envision private and publicly owned forests that are sustainably used, managed, enhanced
and protected for a wide range of goods, services, values and functions. Stewardship of these
forests must be socially responsive and responsible and be grounded in objective science. Forest
policies must respect the diversity of forest types and ownerships and provide economic and
other
incentives to achieve healthy future forest conditions.
Roundtable organizing committee contact:
The future of a healthy forest will be based on sound management, a balance between human
and resource needs, and a long-term perspective which will include the means to do the
following:
Roundtable organizing committee contact:
America's forests of the future will be ecologically, socially, and economically
sustainable. They will be biologically diverse with diverse ownership and uses. Forest
communities will be strong and viable, benefitting from and protecting the health of forest
lands.
Roundtable organizing committee contact:
Roundtable organizing committee contact:
A forest is a natural setting or naturalized open space, which supports a diversified
ecosystem and is largely self-sustaining. A forest includes: Public lands, private lands, Indian
reservations and military bases; a diverse mix of land uses, vegetation, woodlands, lots, ranch
lands and grass lands; defined wilderness areas; places of dark sky, quiet and solitude; restored
ecosystems as well as pristine areas; watersheds which protect for flood control, urban water
sources, canyons and habitats; natural resources whose use and consumption are sustainably
maintained over time; habitat for fish and wildlife; areas of human habitation; recreational areas
for the public; and roads and rails with public access.
Roundtable organizing committee contact:
America's forests will be a mosaic of forest types and ownerships, private and public.
Collectively, they will be productive, healthy, diverse and sustainable. All gifts of the forests will
be honored. These include clean water, wildlife habitat, timber, beauty, recreation, grazing,
wilderness, and places for seclusion, spirituality, and learning. Every child will have the
opportunity to walk in forests.
Decisions about forests will be made in partnership between citizens, local communities,
stakeholders, managers and scientists. Gridlock and conflict will be replaced by trust, respect,
and
collaboration. Decisions will instill public confidence in forests and their future.
Institutional barriers to collaborative stewardship will be eliminated and decisions will
meaningfully involve both local and national interests. Communication about forests will be
open
and frequent.
Forests will be abundant, well-managed, and used in a manner which respects and provides
for
the broad range of values of current and future generations. Goals will be clear and measurable,
incorporate multiple uses of forests, and address the needs of both people and natural
communities. Forest managers will have a long-range view and understand the global, as well as
local and national implications of their actions.
Education will be a the heart of our experience with forests. Forests will serve as outdoor
classrooms, helping people understand their connections to the natural world. Learning will start
with children and continue life-long. Americans will understand the many values of forests and
take personal responsibility for their well-being. We will work together to ensure that all
Americans, in ways and places most appropriate, have access to all the gifts afforded by
America's
forests.
Roundtable organizing committee contact:
America's forests will be at least as extensive and diverse as those which existed in 1995, and
they will be accessible to both urban and rural populations. These healthy, productive forests
will
be found on a mix of public and private lands, and will range from preserves to forests managed
within a scientific and aesthetic framework. They will provide a wide variety of human and
nonhuman goods, services, and values in a manner that is sustainable and reinforces ecosystem
integrity.
American's forests will be experienced and understood by citizens who have learned to live in
ecological, economic, and spiritual balance with the forests. The intimate relationship the
American people have with their forests will help to guide the personal, social, and political
decisions they make which directly or indirectly affect the forests.
These decisions concerning the forests will be reached through a process of consensus rather than
confrontation.
Americans will recognize and value the unique constraints and opportunities presented by
their
local forests; for instance, in the coming century Connecticut's forest land will be predominantly
in
private ownership, in contrast to many other parts of the country. Americans will also
acknowledge the role their forests have in the regional ecosystem and its global context.
America's twenty-first century forests will continue to provide Americans with a tranquil
retreat from their daily lives while they serve as a sustained source of our nation's wealth.
Roundtable organizing committee contact:
America's forests are sustainable, productive, healthy, ecologically functional, and diverse.
They are managed to meet a broad range of ecological, economic, and social values and benefits,
in recognition of international, national, state, community, and landowner interests.
Roundtable organizing committee contact:
America's forests are a healthy, sustainable mosaic of diverse and productive forest
ecosystems
yielding both commodity and non-commodity values to help meet the needs of the world.
Roundtable organizing committee contact:
America's forests will be managed for all the benefits that can be accrued from them. This
management will provide for forests that are healthy, vigorous, and productive and will allow
people to utilize all the goods and services forests are capable of producing. Management will be
geared to improve both the quality of forest resources and the quantity of our forests. In meeting
this vision, we will recognize that while we desire the production of diverse forested ecosystems
sustained for productivity, biological diversity, water resource values, and wildlife habitat, we
must respect the rights of individual landowners to make choices on their land. Americans will
be
better informed about the nature of our forest resource and recognize that "management of
forests" implies many different regimes--from no activity to very intense activity. A
well-informed
public will accept responsibility for understanding all values provided by forests, including the
conservative use of their products. This understanding will lead to a reasonable balance between
forests that are highly managed and those that are unique and special and protected indefinitely.
Roundtable organizing committee contact:
To sustain the finite resources of the forests, a balance must be achieved that provides for the
entire range of human uses and values. A broader understanding of the history and complexity
of
forest management and forest ownership will provide for informed management
decisions.
Roundtable organizing committee contact:
We visualize the forests of the U.S., in the next several generations, to be of the same or
greater land area. Healthy, productive forests will be sustained for a variety of uses and benefits
for both people and native species, using management strategies to maintain and enhance
forests.
Roundtable organizing committee contact:
The vision for America's forests is an expanding, well-distributed forest across the landscape:
a diverse, resilient, sustainable forest connecting urban and rural areas, using riparian zones
where
appropriate. Management shall be scientifically sound and economically efficient, balanced in
terms of the many values a forest can yield, and responsive to the need for biological diversity,
including late-successional stage (i.e., old growth) forests. American forests and their
management shall be supported by a knowledgeable public, actively engaged in their
stewardship.
Roundtable organizing committee contact:
The enhanced and maintained forest ecosystems of the future will provide sustainable benefits
to meet individual and societal needs.
Roundtable organizing committee contact:
America's forests will be environmentally, socially, and economically sustainable, while
providing multiple uses including wood, water, wildlife, and recreation.
Roundtable organizing committee contact:
We see a Maine forest with extensive forests rich in natural resources and values cherished by
residents and visitors; timber, fiber and wood for forest products and energy supporting
successful
businesses and providing stable jobs for residents; lakes, ponds, rivers and streams unspoiled by
pollution or crowding human development; viable communities in which people can live, work,
raise families; forest tracts large enough for wide-ranging wildlife and large enough to meet
recreational and spiritual needs, protected and managed in ways that sustain the ecological
functioning of the forest system and the diversity of plant and animal species; a culture deriving
its
identity from the environment in which it has evolved.
The Roundtable values the uniqueness of Maine's forests including ownership patterns,
regional, biological and community differences, traditional ways of life and patterns of
ownership
continuing with residents of towns, villages and the forests themselves more certain ways of
staying there and securing livelihoods from the land around them. The Roundtable sees outdoor
recreation and tourism compatible with the natural environment and dependent on the qualities
which now characterize the region.
The Roundtable visualizes a community of informed citizens participating in informed
decision-making. The Roundtable recognizes the need to adjust, adapt, and plan for change. The
Roundtable's picture of the future of Maine's forests is of a landscape of interlocking parts and
pieces inseparable, reinforcing each other: local communities, industrial forest land, family and
individual ownership, small woodlots, recreational land, public and private conservation land.
Roundtable organizing committee contact:
We envision healthy, thriving, inviting green (urban) communities with the elements of our
vision being:
Roundtable organizing committee contact:
Let There Be Forests! In the future, we see communities of educated individuals that
recognize their ties to the forest. These communities will make decisions which reflect that
forests are varied ecosystems that contain indispensable social, economic and natural
components.
These indispensable components will be derived from a mix of wild and managed forests.
Roundtable organizing committee contact:
Roundtable organizing committee contact:
American forests are managed with primary consideration given to long-term ecosystem
integrity and sustainability and to sustain healthy economies and human communities.
Management decisions are based on credible science and community values. The public
understands and appreciates the forests and is involved in and supports forest management
decisions.
Roundtable organizing committee contact:
The forests of the future will be abundant, healthy and perpetual, with a variety of plants and
animals. They will benefit society and meet societal wants and needs.
Roundtable organizing committee contact:
We will strive for responsible human use of American forests that will sustain ecological and
economic systems and maintain a full range of forest values for future generations.
Roundtable organizing committee contact:
To manage and maintain a healthy forest in concert with viable economic, social and physical
systems. Recognizing that each of these systems is complex and dynamic, management of the
forest will provide for a range of needs and desires for present and future generations.
Roundtable organizing committee contact:
Our forests, including the urban and community forests, will be healthy, functioning,
productive, and dynamic ecosystems that provide clean and abundant water, soil, air, fiber,
forage,
habitat, recreation, and biodiversity for current and future generations. The sustained productivity
and diversity of the watersheds and ecosystems will provide and enhance social, economic and
biological resources for the nation. Our public will understand and be educated about the
importance of all forests, including forests which range in ownership from small private tracts to
publicly-owned lands and in character from wildlands to urban.
Roundtable organizing committee contact:
The Northeast forests will be comprised of a diverse and complex mosaic of both privately
and
publicly owned lands, managed in accordance with criteria designed to protect and enhance a
broad range of ecological, economic, social and spiritual values and benefits. These criteria will
be
formulated by means of open, democratic, public processes, recognizing that all citizens have a
stake in the health and welfare of our forests. At the same time, these processes must give due
consideration to the interests, whether economic, social, or aesthetic, of private landowners and
respect their rights as stakeholders in the criteria that are established through these processes.
When location, size and resources permit, certain forests will be cared for so as to sustain the
long-term economic health of these communities that are wholly or
substantially dependent on harvesting these forests for wood products and/or their recreational
usage. All forests will be managed with the best unbiased scientific methods then available to
insure a balance of successional stages including old growth and the integrity of natural
processes,
provide and protect habitats for diverse native species, and guarantee long-term ecological
health.
These forests will provide a full range of options, some not yet known or foreseen, for future
generations. Through public processes, public and private wild lands, including some that will be
set aside as wilderness, will be identified and assembled so as to create a region-wide connected
forest network that will protect and enhance entire ecosystems.
Informed citizens who have come to understand and appreciate the economic, natural and
spiritual balance within the forests, and who respect the practices applied to their health and
maintenance, will experience the region's forests and become advocates for their protection.
Public policies affecting the Northeast forests at the federal, state and local levels will be
integrated, applied in a well-reasoned and consistent manner, arrived at through participatory
democracy, and based upon facts and ecological values which incorporate fundamental scientific
principles.
Roundtable organizing committee contact:
Conservation and management of all forestland resources, both and private, to assure healthy
vigorous forest ecosystems. Through stewardship and public awareness, this will assure
biodiversity, productivity, and countless benefits to society.
Roundtable organizing committee contact:
The report received from Santa Fe did not present a combined vision and principles
consensus
among the four groups that participated in the roundtable. However, in a review of the findings
from the four separate groups, the following themes appear to be common threads:
Roundtable organizing committee contact:
Forest stewardship of the future will balance the long-term global and local needs of the
environment, culture, and economy. Forests will become a more accessible, better understood,
and appreciated part of our lives. Forest use will be guided by ethical standards. Forests of the
future will reflect a diversity of forest systems including the protection of old growth forest to
maintain endemic species. Forests of the future will contain large continuous tracts and
connections between them. Forest use will be balanced between private and public property
interests with special attention to the development of tax policy which will ensure that forest land
will continue to be used as forest.
Roundtable organizing committee contact:
American forests found in urban, suburban, and rural communities must be accepted and
acknowledged as a national interest and as an intrinsic, historical, and cultural treasure with a
value beyond economic.
Urban and suburban forest planning will foster conservation and restoration while both
involving and being accountable to the community.
Forest management is necessary everywhere in some form and must have as its goals
ecosystem integrity, biological diversity, and efficient use guided by the best science and
community values. Our practices should provided models for forest use and conservation
throughout the world.
Our forests are cultural and educational resources that must be made accessible to a broad
cross-section of society, the values and techniques of forest stewardship must be disseminated
through increased environmental education.
Forest support must included long, sustainable funding and volunteerism within the urban,
suburban and rural communities. Protection and conservation of diverse healthy forests should
proceed under the presumption of no-net-loss of forest area and forest quality from one
generation to the next. Not only increased funding but increased public ownership of forest land
is required for this to happen.
Scientific research and its applications to urban, suburban, and rural forests will be expanded
and made available to all stakeholders.
Roundtable organizing committee contact:
We see American forests as dynamic communities that are essential to the ecological,
economic and social health of the nation. These forests comprise a diversity of ecosystems and
should continue to provide for a multiplicity of land uses and resource values. It is important
that
we encourage a shift in our perspective toward long term economic and management models to
ensure the sustainability of our forest resources. Society must recognize the rights of private
propertyowners and reward stewardship that enhances public values and encourages open space
protection. The public needs to be educated so that citizens understand the complexity of forests
and the contributions forests make to society. America's forests need to be recognized as part of
a global system whose health is essential to the maintenance of our planet.
Roundtable organizing committee contact:
Oregon's forests will be valued by an informed society. They will be diverse, resilient,
healthy
and productive, and will be a part of sustainable ecosystems. They also will contribute to and be
managed for the sustainability of global natural resources, biodiversity, and human
communities,
providing an array of benefits for present and future generations.
(The Corvallis Roundtable differed in focus from other AFC roundtables being held around the
country in that participants were asked to consider the role of Oregon's forests in the context of
the global environment, and global resources demand.)
Roundtable organizing committee contact:
America's forests will be healthy, productive, diversified, and sustainable. Active forest
stewardship will contribute to a high quality of life for people and essential habitats for all
natural
inhabitants across the forest landscape. Our forests will be actively and adaptively managed to
meet social and economic needs and desires within each forest's biological capabilities.
Roundtable organizing committee contact:
Forests are part of who we are. They are a part of our past which we respect, and will be part
of our future: a legacy we value, a trust we carry. Forests today reflect natural events and bear
the hand-print of past human choice. Our actions today shape our forests of tomorrow and will
be evaluated by future generations. America's forests of the 21st century will be biologically,
socially, and economically sustainable; diverse in ownership, outputs, and conditions; and
productive in values which enhance the quality of life for all Americans.
Roundtable organizing committee contact:
American forests should be managed as sustainable, diverse, healthy ecosystems. Decisions
should be based on scientific principles with regards for balancing private property rights and
responsibilities, economic feasibility, and public needs, to obtain the highest and best use. It is
hoped that this vision will serve as a global model.
Roundtable organizing committee contact:
American forests are biologically diverse ecosystems managed in a sustainable manner to
ensure their perpetuity based upon scientific knowledge and human values to achieve economic,
social, spiritual and emotional needs and values of our local communities and nation.
Roundtable organizing committee contact:
A storehouse of genetically diverse biological resources including all members of the forest
community, managed for economic, recreational, spiritual, ecological benefit of society. A
healthy, productive, sustainable, forest providing multiple uses and values. The health of the
American forests will be characterized by productivity for all plant and animal species,
biodiversity, timber & non-timber (traditional & nontraditional) values. Our forests will be
diverse
and sustain human and nonhuman values. Our forests will be managed for long-term
sustainability
of the forest intended to produce a variety of products for human use and at the same time
maintain and protect environmental values (watersheds, soils, air quality, aesthetics wildlife,
plants, etc).
Healthy sustainable forest lands which are managed in such a manner to provide for continued
enjoyment and to insure continuance of the diverse habitat for the protection of native species. A
shift from urban tourism to urban education within the forest setting. The best education
experiences demonstrate the conflicts and resolves of humanity in the forest to meet all needs in
a
sustainable way. Healthy and productive forests which supply both tangible and intangible
resources and values for the present and future users. Maintain a healthy and diverse forest
ecosystem. A healthy forest provides multiple benefits for a diversity of interests including
human
and nonhuman species over long periods of time.
Roundtable organizing committee contact:
