Economic Impacts of Biodiversity 
Biodiversity has a major impact on the economy of Pennsylvania in the form of revenue and jobs created in the state.
 
• The forest products industry in Pennsylvania provides 90,000 jobs in 2,500 firms and contributes more than $4.5 billion to the economy. As an added benefit, wood products are made from renewable resources that are recyclable and biodegradable.
• In 1996, activities associated with watching, feeding, or photographing wildlife generated $1.8 billion to Pennsylvania's economy, including more than $236 million contributed by visitors to the state.
• Nearly 20 percent of Pennsylvanians hunt, trap, or fish, spending more than $1 billion annually in pursuit of these outdoor sports.
• Thousands of Pennsylvanians and visitors to our state spend many hours enjoying our natural wonders through hiking, biking, crosscountry skiing,and other outdoor recreation.
