Dresident and CEO of Metsa Group, Ilkka Hamala, promotes the interests of the forest industry as the chairman of the Confederation of the Paper and Pulp Industry (Cepi). His term started in the beginning of 2022 and will last two years. "Our job is to ensure that the decision makers in the EU understand the sustain-ability of wood-based products and the forest industry, as well as our social significance." The commissioners are aware that the forest industry doesn't cause any problems concerning climate change, but according to Hamala, they don't understand as well as the previous commission, that the forest industry may in fact offer solutions for preventing it.
