Reforesting Scotland

About us

Scotland was once a well-forested country with a culture tied closely to trees and woodlands. Now much of the forest has been lost and enviornmental pressures, including climate change, threaten what remains. But Reforesting Scotland believes that it is not too late to reverse this situation.
Reforesting Scotland aims to:

Promote a sustainable forest culture and economy in a well-forested land
Develop the use of locally-produced forest goods and services
Encourage social and ecological restoration in forests and in wider land use
Raise awareness of the benefits of low-energy living based on woodland resources
Place the Scottish forestry situation in an international context
