How fires, storms, and bark beetles will shape the future of Europe’s forests TUM researchers have modeled how bark beetles, storms and wildfires could affect Europe’s forests. A doubling of forest damage is possible.

Researchers calculated how disturbances like #wildfires, storms, and #barkbeetles, fueled by #climatechange, could transform Europe’s forests by 2100. #ForestDamage could increase, especially in Southern and Western Europe: go.tum.de/187640

DNR economists present revised timber forecast; fund balances at risk as removals and prices fall; board adopts small conservation transfer DNR's February forecast showed timber sales and removals revised sharply down (sales volume now estimated near 400 million board feet, price reduced to about $340 per MBF), driving downward fund-balance projections for RMCA and the Forest Development Account; the board adopted Resolution 16-73 to add 5.6 acres to Stavis NRCA.

DNR's latest timber forecast reveals a staggering drop in sales volume and prices, putting fund balances at serious risk—what does this mean for the future of our forests?

Senate resolution urges landowners to act against southern pine beetle outbreak The Senate Natural Resources committee adopted SR 480 recognizing an outbreak of the southern pine beetle, encouraging landowners to follow Georgia Forestry Commission best management practices and urging mitigation steps such as removing dead or infested trees and considering controlled burns.

Georgia's Senate has taken a stand against the southern pine beetle, urging landowners to adopt proactive measures to protect our forests from this growing threat.

Conservation coalition files 2026 ballot initiative to fund outdoor strategy and forest grants A coalition including The Nature Conservancy filed a measure to dedicate outdoor gear sales-tax revenue — projected about $170 million annually — to the Colorado Outdoor Strategy and forest/fire grant programs, plus small shares for equity and workforce; council members discussed implications and timing.

A groundbreaking initiative aims to funnel millions from outdoor gear sales into vital forest and outdoor programs in Colorado—could this transform our natural landscapes?

Forest Service: national court rulings halt some treatments; Alpine projects must be reanalyzed A USDA Forest Service representative told Alpine County supervisors that a nationwide court ruling limited use of a 'wildlife habitat improvement' categorical exclusion, forcing reanalysis of some Monitor Pass and West Carson treatments while about 80–86 acres already treated will move forward.

A recent court ruling has put the brakes on wildlife habitat improvement projects nationwide, forcing Alpine County to rethink its strategy for fire fuels reduction.
