"Forests are major contributors to our climate-change mitigation efforts. One of the approaches to tackling climate change is maximising the contribution of our forests, which currently deliver a 10% mitigation factor. This contribution however has the potential to be bigger still – in three specific ways: through the enlargement of European forest cover, by the active management of our forests and by increasing the use of wood, of timber in both traditional ways and in new ways. The reasons why we need to manage our forests are not only limited to climate change mitigation. Management of forests is equally important from the point of view of creating employment in rural areas, both in actual woodlands and in wood processing facilities, timber transport, research and innovation facilities, etc. Nevertheless, extensive use of wood opens up new possibilities for employment but also poses challenges in terms of supplying an adequately educated and trained workforce, familiar with new technologies as well as the constraints associated with sustainable use of wood."@en1
