The climate project Luckaitz Valley is currently made of a monoculture forest with 92% pine trees and uniform tree heights. thereby, the forest is vulnerable to climate-related disasters such as storms, heat stress, and beetle infestations. to make the forest more resilient against the consequences of climate change, the following measures get implemented: (1) planting diverse, climate-resilient tree species such as douglas fir and fir, oak, beech, birch, maple, linden or hornbeam, (2) stimulating natural rejuvenation, (3) wildlife management to prevent serious forest damage. by implementing these measures, the Luckaitz Valley climate project avoids and removes carbon emissions from the atmosphere, by decreasing the climate risk of the forest and increasing its structural diversity.
The Luckaitz Valley project was developed in accordance with ISO 14064-2 requirements and was successfully third-party audited and validated by TÜV NORD.
