  • Description: Forest plantations play a crucial role in protecting the natural forests--Amazon and Atlantic, which represent 59% of Brazilian land--by preventing them from being cut to supply any timber-based industry. Sustainable production processes of timber have become the norm. South America has continued the expansion of wood pulp production with an increasing number of new pulp mills being built in Brazil, Chile and Uruguay. Here, Nobre explores the race toward sustainability with the help of operations research.
