Forestinfo.org, an environmental education website geared towards teachers, students, forestry professionals, and those with a general interest in protecting, managing, and enhancing the natural environment, has created a set of short videos called Forest Fast Breaks.

Forest Fast Breaks are concise, engaging animated shorts that simplify complex forestry topics. The videos highlight forest ecology, sustainable forest management practices, and the environmental benefits of utilizing wood in consumer products and as a building material. Ten videos cover diverse topics, including carbon capture, clearcutting, forest fire, green building, forest management, photosynthesis, reforestation, sustainability, water and wood products.

The videos are suitable for third grade through adult learners.

Additional resources include EcoLinks, award-winning films, curriculum, lesson plans, books, posters and hands-on activities.
