Just dived in[1], but apparently this isn't so much a plan as a plan to have a plan. In particular it mentions a EU Forest Strategy to be proposed in 2021. You know, it sounds "nice", but here's the pet peeve I have whenever I hear about reforestation efforts nowadays: there's no talk about making sure the trees in the forest are themselves, y'know, biodiverse. It's easy to plant a lot of trees if they're all the same species, clones, etc. but the problem is you end up with a forest that isn't so resilient to either natural disaster nor disease. Entire crops of trees have been wiped out before because the, to put it mildly, economical approach to getting things done quickly meant just planting a lot of the same species of tree. Well, I guess we'll see next year what their EU Forest Strategy is, I hope they take biodiversity in the flora as seriously as biodiversity in the fauna.
