Coming back to this thread. Thanks, Jason, for the replies. I still seem to be getting mixed messages about the vision statement. I read here - and you shared in our meeting today - that we can work together on a new one (focused on solutions) but then I also read that the steering committee will accept comments (ideally collective, not from individuals) and then decide what to do with the vision statement after the event. Perhaps I am too stuck in the semantics, but those seem like very different paths forward.
I will rest this circular discussion and come to where I think we are today: working on the prompts and preparing for what “collective action” can do to benefit forests, mitigate climate change and ensure wood products don’t cause harm (and ideally bring benefits). These are my words - and I know not the exact words laid out in the vision or the Summit materials.
