Take a seat on 1 tonne of CO2! At FAO in Rome a wood bench turn the spotlight on the Model Forests
|
|
The 27th FAO Committee on Forestry (COFO), took place in Rome last week at the same time as the 9th World Forest Week, attended by delegations from more than 100 countries, with 800 delegates, 20 ministers and deputy ministers, and around 60 non-governmental and research organisations.
During the entire week, the participants found to greet them at the entrance a huge wooden bench that says “Take a seat on 1 tonne of CO2!”. The installation was promoted by FAO, the Secretariat of the Mediterranean Model Forest Network and the Montagne Fiorentine Model Forest and realized by the Bioeconomy Institute of the National Research Council (CNR - IBE) following an idea of EUSTAFOR, The European State Forest Association.

Unasylva 255 - Restoring the Mediterranean region: status and challenges
|
|
FAO has just published a special issue of its Unasylva journal on the restoration of Mediterranean forests, which are increasingly threatened by the impacts of climate change and human activity. The journal explores, through 13 expert articles, the extent of ecosystem restoration in the region over recent years, the advances and the challenges, as well as the tools and approaches that can help increase the quality and quantity of restoration work.
The MMFN took part with an article titled “The Mediterranean Model Forest Network: involving rural communities in designing restoration projects” written by the MMFN Secretariat with the collaboration of the IMFN, Tuscany Region and Tlemcen Model Forest.
