About UPM

UPM has participated in Environment Online’s Tree Planting Day in the UK, Uruguay and Finland. The annual event is part of UPM’s partnership with ENO, a global virtual school and network for sustainable development. In 11 years of operations, ENO has reached thousands of schools in 150 countries.

The seedlings planted on the Tree Planting Day represent just a fraction of the 50 million seedlings UPM plants annually. The co-operation with ENO and local schools is extremely important in building future generations’ relationship to nature and forests. Tree planting is a concrete way of bringing forest-related topics closer to people. It is one way to demonstrate how UPM continuously plans actions related to forestry and forest regeneration in the long term.

UPM is committed to its international biodiversity programme. The goal is to secure biodiversity as a vital part of sustainable forestry, and simultaneously promoting best forestry practices. The United Nations biodiversity declaration signed by UPM is a natural part of the company’s long-lasting work in developing sustainable forestry practices.
