   🌳 2022 was the second-worst year for wildfires in the EU.

   From wildfires to biodiversity loss, the future of European forests is threatened by the worsening effects of climate change.

   Our proposed Forest Monitoring Law will use local data and our Copernicus satellite network to plug information gaps and create a broad forest knowledge base with:

   ➡ A #forest monitoring system
   ➡ A system to map and localise forest units
   ➡ Forest data collection and sharing frameworks
