Naturally, our forests consist mainly of deciduous trees, but since conifers such as spruce and pine grow faster and are easier to use economically, forestry has in the past mainly relied on this - at the expense of diversity. Today are significantly more than half of our forests are dominated by coniferswhich are often found in monocultures. This not only reduces the domestic biodiversity, it has also shown that forests have no long-term future in the face of climate change. More and more trees are damaged and fall victim to the drought. Near-natural forests, on the other hand, can better compensate for the consequences of climatic change.
In order to preserve these precious habitats and protect biological diversity, a rethink has to take place. Forest management must become gentler and closer to nature.
