On Climate & Law: Can Laws protect forests from climate change? With Amila Meškin (EUSTAFOR)
We launch the second season of "On Climate and Law" with an episode interviewing expert Amila Meškin, Senior Policy Advisor at European State Forest Association | EUSTAFOR, exploring how climate change is impacting Europe’s forests, how we can adapt to these changes and what the role of regulations is in preventing climate change from impacting forests.
This sixth episode was co-hosted by Alex Kassapis (YEE) and Davide Gobbicchi (Rethinking Climate).
Forests will experience dramatic changes as the average world temperature is increasing. Depending on the local geographic characteristics, forests may be affected by different extreme weather events and changing climatic patterns. These could be droughts, forest fires, floods, or deadly diseases which affect flora and/or fauna. At the same time, forests are carbon sinks and major biodiversity hotspots, which render their healthy existence vital and very useful for sustainability. It is therefore of paramount importance to adopt the necessary climate adaptation measures to ensure that forests stay healthy.
On Climate & Law is a podcast discussing the legal sphere to implement stronger policies in fighting climate change with a resulting collaboration between Rethinking Climate and Youth and Environment Europe (YEE) to promote clarity on this topic.
