Our Biospheria Project No. 1 is a classic CO2 sink, namely forest. It is located about 100 meters above sea level and is crossed by the European long-distance hiking trail E10, which will at some point lead from the north of Finland to the south of Spain. In Central Europe, it runs from the German island of Rügen to Bolzano in northern Italy.
We have removed a former pine wood plantation from management and are accompanying the forest on its transformation into a natural, sustainable mixed wood land. Careful interventions such as the cutting of small clearings should support and accelerate this natural process. However, it is important that the forest is permanently protected and that the CO2 bound here remains on site as part of natural regeneration.
