Risveden - ur naturskyddssynpunkt

Ekosystemet skogen har idag få områden där det kan visa upp sig med naturens egen värdighet.

 

Den politiskt starkt inflytelserika, påtryckande skogvirkesbranschen har under ca 60 år, låtit utveckla skogsbruket, så att det har förenklat och med ca 200-600 år förkortat och avbrutit skogsekosystemens inslag av biologiska cykler.

 

Med ca 7 % formellt skyddad produktiv skog i landet och en ständigt ökande virkesefterfrågan letar vi efter spillrorna av de sista skyddsvärda naturskogarna.
