The Paris Agreement sets ambitious targets for climate mitigation, which require transformation of the production and consumption systems that generate greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, mainly due to fossil fuel use. The interaction of forests with the climate system is complex. The scientific literature provides a variety of views on how different forests and forest management options can be adapted to climate change – and there are also divergences in view on how they affect the climate. This report summarizes the discussions from the 2-day international conference Forests and the climate: Manage for maximum wood production or leave the forest as a carbon sink? in March 2018 at the Royal Swedish Academy of Agriculture and Forestry in Stockholm, Sweden. The aim was to facilitate dialogue among experts representing different views related to forest management and climate change mitigation, to help advance scientific understanding, and to identify knowledge gaps and priorities for future research and data collection.

”Vi tror att en ökad variation i skogen är bra – och att vägen dit går via engagerade skogsägare som vet vad de vill”. Det är huvudbudskapet i det arbete som KSLA:s skogsskötselkommitté presenterar i denna skrift. En skogsägare kan göra stor skillnad i skogen men det tar lång tid innan det får riktigt genomslag.
The aim of the first European Conference on Local and Regional Food was to provide a forum for politicians, officials and representatives from the food production and processing industries to meet and discuss the future of local food.
Nobody would argue against the necessity of developing sustainable agriculture. But as usual there may be several pathways that lead to the goal. The 2003 Bertebos Conference explored one of them: the possibility of developing European agriculture into an ecosystem services provider.
