The EU's Green Deal (European Green Deal, EGD) is a roadmap for a societal transformation in the EU and Europe aiming for climate neutrality (net-zero) by 2050, an economic reform with the ambition to decouple economic growth from resource use, and an action plan for social levelling. Through the project, we will identify, monitor and analyze implications for the forestry sector for key elements of the EGD.
Work Package 1 – European Green Deal
Identify, monitor and analyze the central political processes of importance for the development of Norwegian forest policy. Establish a structured arrangement for analyses of political processes in the EU on the development in Norwegian forest policy.
Work Package 2 – Consequences for the development of forest resources in Norway
Quantitative studies of possible consequences for the development of forest resources at the national level.
Work Package 3 – Consequences for the forestry industry and society. Challenges and opportunities
WP 3 will include analyses based on results from WP 1 and 2. While WP 2 focused on the forest resource alone, here we will acknowledge that the forest is part of the LULUCF pillar and that the path to the goal of net-zero (and later increased uptake) will also be influenced by developments in the other parts of the sector. This includes seeing the forest as part of the LULUCF pillar, and the overall scope for achieving the net-zero goal.
Work Package 4: Communication
Communication to decision-makers, administration, industry actors, NGOs, and the general public is an important part of the project.
Work Package 5: Synthesis
