On 3-4 June 2019 the United Nations’ Economic Commission for Europe (UNECE)/ Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) Timber Section’s Team of Specialists (ToS) on Wood Energy met at the SLU campus in Umeå. Among its obligations, the ToS has a mandate to advise and support the joint UNECE/FAO Forestry and Timber Section’s activities regarding wood energy data and to contribute to a better understanding of wood energy statistics as a basis for sound policy making. The ToS recently released a report on wood energy as the largest source of bioenergy in the UNECE region.

At the meeting, CERE’s Deputy Director Francisco Aguilar was elected to be the new leader of the ToS over the 2019-2021 period. (Click on headline to read more)

I Östersunds-Posten gör de ett reportage om de 50 största skogsägarna i Jämtlands län. Skogsindustrin må omsätta miljarder varje år, men det finns andra värden än monetära, något som diskuteras allt mer. CERE:s Bengt Kriström har arbetat med frågan under många år och berättar mer.

”– De som vi kallar för ickemarknadsprissatta värden som rekreation till exempel tenderar att öka med ökande inkomst, jag skulle tro att de har blivit viktigare på slutet. Det är många som ser ett värde mer än att vi hugger ner skogen.” (Klicka på rubriken för att läsa mer)

The intersection between productivity and the environment a focus area during guest researcher Moriah Bostians stay with CERE this spring.

Moriah will be working closely with CERE’s Tommy Lundgren: - We are currently working to apply network technology estimation methods in order to model the linkages between prevention and treatment technologies for emissions reductions. For example, switching to a lower emissions fuel source would be considered a form of prevention, while installing smoke stack scrubbers would be considered a form of treatment. We are also using similar network methods to better understand the tradeoffs in forest management between harvesting timber for final pulp and paper products, using forest resources to produce biofuel, and net carbon emissions.
