Summary
Resilient forests can absorb and adapt to disturbances like climate change and attacks from tree pests and diseases. This helps them remain healthy and sustainable.
The routemap outlines how to protect Scotland's forests from climate change and create resilient woodlands for the future and:
- explains what resilience means
- identifies key threats
- highlights why resilience is important
The routemap also sets out three main outcomes along with priority actions.
These actions aim to help Scotland's forests resist, adapt to, respond to, and recover from climate-related challenges.
