Imagine you were a bird flying over Europe. You would see cities and villages, rivers, agricultural landscape, and forests covering almost one-third of Europe. You will distinguish many different types
Resin extraction is on the rise and the SustForest+ project has given it a boost. The closing meeting of this European Interreg-Sudoe project was organised by the European Institute of
• The objective is to leverage complex forests as a climate-smart strategy to mitigate climate change and promote biodiversity. • Provide a classification of the benefits provided by complex forests as well as
Complex forests and mixed plantations, as a resilient alternative, can increase, and in many cases, improve the potential quality of ecosystem services compared to other forest systems.
The SustForest+ project, in close collaboration with the INCREDIBLE inter-regional innovation network on resin, has made it possible to develop resin tapping and transport processes, calculate the carbon footprint of
The 8th public meeting of the Gemm_Est & ExtraFor_Est projects, related to extractable chemical compounds from trees, was held online on 22 April 2021. This event, which was open to
CARTON ("optimisation of carbon traits") is a collaborative project coordinated by INRAE (ANR project, 2020-2025). This project aims to identify European tree species that offer optimal soil carbon sequestration capacity,
An important debate about the forest-based bioeconomy in Europe and its impact on forest harvesting
Sustainable forest management plays a key role in climate mitigation strategies. This is due to the carbon sequestration potential of forests and their provision of raw materials that can substitute
At the time when the stronger development of the bioeconomy will help the European Union accelerate progress towards a circular and low-carbon economy, global experts on non-wood forest products (NWFP)
