Forest Creation and Climate Change
The benefits of creating new woodlands
There are many reasons why it is good to plant trees, especially when combined with creating other attractive habitats for wildlife and enhancing the landscape on a large scale, as we do in The National Forest. Woodland also provides opportunities for recreation and enjoyment, jobs and tourism.
These pages specifically address the contribution of The National Forest’s trees to reducing the effects of climate change. These have been developed by the Directors, with commissioned research, and the Board will review them regularly, as it keeps abreast of research and policy in this critical area.
