What does sustainable forestry mean?
This question was answered by forester Elena Schmidtmeyer in an interview.
The forest must be properly cared for and used. In the end, the CO2 balance is only correct if the forest absorbs more CO2 than it loses through storms, forest fires, beetle damage and the like. A forest absorbs a particularly large amount of CO2 when it is used, i.e. when old trees are processed and replaced by young trees that can absorb new CO2.
The background to the interview:
We are committed to reforestation. One way of doing this is to make donations and to plant trees. On the other hand, we also contribute to making the topic of “reforestation” more visible to the general public. We interviewed forester Elena Schmidtmeyer and filmed a series of video clips with her that answer many interesting questions on the subject.
Why do we get involved and how exactly do we do it? Please read our separate article here.
