Forestry companies in the throes of climate change, bureaucracy and economic efficiency: solutions are needed now!

“‘The deforestation regulation still has numerous gaps in its core elements and is therefore still unsuitable for legally secure implementation. A postponement and an adjustment to the content are urgently needed! With the Renaturation Act, at least when implemented at national level, there is now a unique opportunity to learn from the mistakes of the past and to involve the affected managers of the area in the process from the start. It is important to promote voluntariness and incentive systems instead of proceeding with bans that lead to frustration and uncertainty among those affected.””
