Forests play a key role in responding to climate change, preserving and restoring biodiversity, safeguarding health, ensuring water resilience and developing the bioeconomy. However, information on European forests is often incomplete or outdated. It is crucial to have precise, complete and up-to-date information on European forests. Therefore, the Commission proposed a new law on a monitoring framework for resilient European forests, which will build on existing national schemes to provide open access to detailed, accurate and timely information on the status and trends of EU forests. This data can be used by EU countries, forest owners or forest managers to take swift and action for ensuring forest resilience or enhanced carbon sequestration.
