Ponsse North America Featured on Tomorrow's World Today

PITTSBURGH - Aug. 2, 2021 - PRLog -- Tomorrow's World Today, a cutting-edge television show for the latest developments on sustainability, technology and innovation will feature Ponsse on its Emmy-nominated television show in Season 4. Tomorrow's World Today explores the concepts of science and technology that are changing lives today for making a difference tomorrow.

In this episode, Field Reporter David Carmine heads out to Eugene, Oregon where the 2020 wildfires of 2020 ravaged the state.  In fact, 1.2 million acres of land were destroyed in just 72 hours. The show will explore how Ponsse helps with post-fire salvage, which not only supports local timber industries, but also promotes future forest development and reduces the chance of fires happening again.

Carmine meets with Pekka Ruuskanen, President and CEO of Ponsse North America to learn about the process. He also speaks with Matt Mattioda from Miller Timber Services, who discusses two Ponsse machines that are pivotal to post-fire salvage: the Harvester and Forwarder.

"Seeing the devastation first-hand was incredibly emotional," said Carmine. "And looking at the Bootleg fires happening now, and the difficulty firefighters are having to contain them, I know there will be a lot of work that needs to be done in a short amount of time for foresters to be able to salvage  the trees that are damaged."

Next, Carmine will take viewers through the sawmill process to learn how burnt wood is salvaged and then he heads back to the forest to discuss the importance of forestry management and shares technological advancements taking place in the milling industry.

Season Four, Episode Three of Tomorrow's World Today, featuring Ponsse, will air on Saturday, August 7 at 8:30 am EST on Science Channel and Sunday, August 8 at 6:30 a.m. on Discovery. It will also be available to stream on DiscoveryGo and ScienceGo the following week.
