The forest adaptation project removes and avoids carbon emissions by increasing the structural diversity of the forest, making the forest more climate-resilient.
European forests face imminent climate risks as they largely consist of monocultures heavily affected by bark beetles, droughts, and storms. More than half a million hectares of forest in Germany have died since 2018. And it's not just Germany – more than 60% of the trees in all of Europe are in danger today due to climate change. Tackling this challenge requires turning endangered monocultures into climate-resilient, biodiverse forests - a process called ‘forest adaptation’. In the climate project “Gudow Mill”, Pina Earth transforms 140 hectares made up of uniform pine forest near Hamburg into a near-natural biodiverse forest. By doing so, the project avoids and removes over 6,000 tons of CO₂ emissions over 30 years from the atmosphere, preparing the forest for future climatic conditions. The following activities are financed and implemented as part of the climate project: (1) planting multiple diverse, climate-resilient tree species such as fir, douglas fir, oak, beech, birch and larch, (2) supporting the natural rejuvenation of young trees, (3) improving wildlife management By implementing these activities, the Gudow Mill project drives regional climate protection, while strengthening biodiversity and contributing to society reaching the Paris Agreement.
