Worldwide, paper packaging is already responsible for the logging of 3 billion trees! We need to #RefuseSingleUse and advocate for #Reuse in order to save forests from relentless deforestation. #DayOfForests #IDOF

Why is @fao.org @faodg.fao.org promoting the substitution of disposable use of plastic for wood on #IntlDayofForests?
FAO recognises wood consumption is at an all-time high. In fact, forests already cannot sustainably supply so much wood. (1/2) #IDOF #DayOfForests

@fao.org @faodg.fao.org let’s talk about the #WoodSupplyGap on the upcoming #IntlForestDay on March 21st!
Studies show we already consume worldwide more wood than forests are able to supply in a sustainable way 🪵 #DayOfForests

Hey @FAO! We have a major correction for this year’s #DayOfForests tagline: Forests Mean Life! 🌳🦅🐝💧🌈
Don’t promote forests burned for energy or cut down for paper packaging, the two most short-lived ways to use wood. Instead, celebrate all life forms who call forests home!

The image contains the text "#forestsday" at the top right. Below this is the title "What is Birmingham doing for forests?", with the text "Urban Forest Master Plan for Birmingham 2021-2051" on the next line. Underneath are two bullet points: "Provides long-term strategic guidance on how to develop the urban forest to address the issue of low levels of tree canopy in deprived areas of the city." and "The vision: “Having more trees for Birmingham, that deliver benefits for health, nature, and climate change, for all the communities within the city, now and in the future, as part of an inclusive and sustainable urban forest.”". The image also contains a QR code linking to the full report of the plan and also has a background photo of a skyscraper and some trees taken from a low angle shot.
In honour of last Friday's International Day of Forests, we've compiled research & opportunities relating to Birmingham's forests. Here's another report we found interesting.
We hope you enjoyed learning more about forest-related actions going on in Birmingham!

The image contains the text "#forestsday" at the top right. Below this is the title "What is Birmingham doing for forests?", with the text "Valuing Birmingham, Coventry and Solihull’s Urban Forest" on the next line. Underneath are four bullet points: "As of 2023, there were 2,966,000 trees across Birmingham, Coventry & Solihull; vacant land could accommodate 1.92 million more.", "Per year, trees & shrubs in these areas: Remove 144 tonnes of air pollution, store 1,068,000 tonnes of carbon, reduce water surface run off by 936,000m^3", "105 tree species were recorded, with very few ancient trees. Silver Birch, Ash & English Oak were the most common" and "Using this data, new trees could be planted in specific areas to address issues of localised flooding & air pollution.". The image also contains a QR code linking to the full report and also has a background photo of a city with a green space in the foreground.

The image contains the text "#forestsday" at the top right. Below this is the title "What is Birmingham doing for forests?", with the text "Birmingham City University Student Project" on the next line. Underneath are three bullet points: "Mechanical Engineering student Molly O’Neill looked at the environmental benefits of planting an urban forest on the BCU campus.", "Planting silver birch trees & soft shield fern shrubs were found to be the most suitable, feasible & effective option." and "Doing this would hugely benefit the environment, reducing 14748.41 kg of CO2 emissions in the first year.". The image also contains a QR code linking to a blog post that discusses the student project in more detail and there is also a background photo of a city with vegetation in the foreground.

Image shows the following forest fact: "Forest coverage in the UK is amongst the lowest in Europe. On average, 44% of Europe’s total landmass is covered in woodland, yet forests only occupy a measly 13% of the UK’s land.". There is also a background image of a forest with chopped wood in the foreground.
Image shows the following forest fact: "Many medicines are derived from forest plants. Throughout history, plants have been used to produce medicine. Still to this day, rainforest plants are used to make 25% of the drugs in modern medicine, including anti-cancer drugs and birth control pills.". There is also a background image of a mixture of pills.
Image shows the following forest fact: "The UK is home to a rare type of rainforest. Small patches of temperate rainforest - a globally rare and threatened habitat - can be found across the west coast of the UK. Many different plants and animals inhabit these woodlands, creating a highly biodiverse environment.". There is also a background image of a temperate rainforest.
Image shows the following forest fact: "Our food system is responsible for most deforestation. Across the globe, agricultural expansion causes about 80% of deforestation and so is also a key driver of forest biodiversity loss.". There is also a background image of a field full of cows, with trees and other fields in the distance.
Today is International Day of Forests!🌲

🌲 On the International #DayOfForests, we appreciate that more than half of 🇱🇻’s territory is covered by forests. We also advocate for this landscape treasure internationally by supporting the #UN’s 🇺🇳 global SDGs for nature & climate & highlighting the role of forests in mitigating the climate crisis.

Photography and art installation. Color photograph of an installation in a forest clearing made of branches, iron and a steel cable (size: 400 x 700 x 60 cm). A large gate made of many branches and twigs and an associated, implied hedge stand in front of a forest in a bright clearing. The branches around the gate appear to be flying. They look like a flock of birds soaring out of the hedge. Info: A similar branch installation was exhibited in Osnabrück, Germany, in 2007.
