Official name

Management and use of city-owned forests will strengthen carbon sinks. The measures to strengthen carbon sinks are set out in the 2022–2030 forest management policy. Uneven-aged forest management will be preferred, for example, in the forests located around housing and in those used for outdoor recreation and hiking. Sustainable management and use of commercial forests will be ensured. Nature conservation areas will be operated in line with the management and use plans approved by the Centre for Economic Development, Transport and the Environment.
