There is more than one cause. The consequences of climate change such as forests fires, drought, storms, insect outbreaks, impact the capacity of EU forest to capture CO2.

In addition, our society needs biomass for materials and energy, and there is no reason why we should not use this renewable source in a sustainable way. Studies show <em>that the regional climate change mitigation potential of sustainably managed forests is about 10 times as high as that of forest taken out of management, based on lifetime of trees under unmanaged conditions<\/em> (Schulze et al. 2020).<\/p><p>\u00a0<\/p><p>So, the real question should be, can we enhance the forest carbon sink while at the same time substituting carbon intensive materials and fossil fuels with biobased products and bioenergy? <strong>The answer is yes, thanks to sustainable forest management.<\/strong><\/p>"}},{"@type":"Question","name":"How can removing biomass increase the carbon sink?","acceptedAnswer":{"@type":"Answer","text":"<p>Removing biomass for forest management purposes leads to an immediate drop in carbon stocks.
