FORESTS UNDER THREAT CLIMATE CHANGE AND THE NEE...

Spruce trees  a mainstay of many forests  are facing a silent killer: climate change. Rising
temperatures and erratic precipitation patterns are weakening these evergreens  making them
vulnerable to pests and diseases. This spruce decline threatens vast swathes of forest 
impacting everything from timber production to biodiversity.The culprit? Warmer winters allow
insect pests like the bark beetle to survive and multiply. Droughts further stress trees 
reducing their ability to fight off these attacks. The result is a domino effect: weakened
trees succumb to pests  leading to large-scale die-offs and visible patches of bare
landscape.Spruce decline is not just an ecological concern. These forests play a vital role in
regulating water cycles and absorbing carbon dioxide. Their loss can exacerbate climate change
creating a vicious cycle. Urgent action is needed  from promoting diverse tree populations to
managing forests for resilience. By acting now  we can save these iconic trees and ensure the
health of our planet's vital ecosystems.
