An EEA report shows Europe’s forests and land are now absorbing 30% less carbon than a decade ago.

Why the decline? 🤔
🌲 Forests are getting older and became slower at absorbing carbon.
🪓 Tree harvesting has increased.
🔥 Climate impacts like fires, droughts and pests damaging trees.

🌱 But there’s hope: avoiding the drainage of peatlands, planting new trees and using biomass to make long-lasting products, like construction materials, can help nature recover its superpowers.
