Climate Smart Forests Transylvania

Climate Smart Forests Transylvania, Romênia

We are restoring the wind-damaged forests of Transylvania to increase their resilience against the impacts of climate change. The disruption of conditions that forests have adapted to over centuries has left them vulnerable and prone to further deterioration. By reintroducing oak species and replanting with native trees, we aim to strengthen these forests to withstand future changes and conserve the natural habitat of many local animals.

Good work, keep it up

As the herbaceous plants around our planted tree seedlings have surpassed their peak growing season for this year, we have begun cutting them on our planting sites where they have heavily overshadowed the seedlings.

Raindrops on spiderwebs, leaves, bears, and deer in the morning fog are signs of the generous rains that have fallen in recent days, vital for the seedlings planted this spring.
