"I voted for this important report. EU forests and other wooded land cover more than 42% of the EU’s surface area. Forests provide livelihoods for millions of workers, entrepreneurs and 16 million forest owners. The forest-based industries (FBIs) provide more than 2 million jobs, mostly in SMEs, and have a EUR 300 billion turnover. 350 000 people are employed in forest management. In addition, 40% of EU forests are state-owned. The EU ratio of felling to increment is stable at around 60%. This ratio is projected to increase in several countries to over 100%, causing a decline in growing stock after 2020. Measures to protect forests are vital. European forests can be grouped in five bioclimatic zones: the Boreal, Temperate Oceanic, Temperate Continental, Mediterranean and Mountain zones (5), compatible with the EEA’s forest typology, developed to guide policy decisions (6)."@en1
